Christine EbersoleSings Noel Coward Release Date 2008 05 13 Label Ghostlight Rating: ![]() The title, Sunday in New York, conjures up a quiet day in the city, the perfect time for a lazy afternoon filled with one's favorite show tunes. In fact, it is not unlike the show one might have heard from singer Christine Ebersole and pianist-vocalist Billy Stritch at the Metropolitan Room. These performances, in fact, provided the material and simple approach to Sunday in New York, an album with a heavy emphasis on the classic songbook. As one might expect, the team delivers a version of &"Sunday in New York," and keeping with this theme, also adds &"Walkin' in New York." There are selections from musical favorites like &"My Favorite Things," &"Surrey with the Fringe on Top," and &"Will You?" (from Grey Gardens). The arrangements, piano, bass, and drums, are low-key, and Ebersole and Stritch explore a number of variations on the duo form, from adding no more than supporting harmony on the choruses to full-blown duets. The theatrical approach of the duo will remind many of a lounge act, with an emphasis placed on bright, exaggerated expressions. This approach may seem like a bit much on the upbeat songs on Sunday in New York, generating energetic vocals that are over the top. Ronnie D. Lankford, Jr., Rovi |
