The Music...The Mem ries...The Magic! tour reviews were consistently stunning. The New York Times wrote that Barbra "continues to make the finale of "Don t Rain on My Parade sound like a space shuttle leaving Earth." The Miami Herald raved, "Streisand phrases masterfully. She instinctively knows just when to place emphasis on a portion of a song so she can still achieve the stratospheric money note. When she sang softly, her pristine vibrato melted sustained lines seamlessly one into the other, stitching notes like a master tailor on a solo "You Don t Bring Me Flowers" or on Stephen Sondheim s "Losing My Mind." The Baltimore Sun lauded, "Considering how superbly Streisand sounded, she could have owned the place singing the alphabet. Few pop vocalists achieve that consistency, let alone back up the vocal steadiness with so much interpretive power."

This collection impresses from the moment she begins to sing, and is a must for every Barbra Streisand fan. The release of The Music...The Mem ries...The Magic! album accompanies the airing of the filmed version of this concert, that premiered on Netflix on Wednesday, November 22nd, 2017.
