Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
Kristin Chenoweth won a Tony for the supporting role of Sally Brown in the 1999 revival of You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, made a memorably vampy Lily in the 1999 television film of Annie, and had an NBC sitcom created for her, Kristin! Now she grabs the spotlight in Let Yourself Go, her first solo recording. She mixes torchy standards ('My Funny Valentine,' 'How Long Has This Been Going On?') with Faith Prince-style sauciness ('If'), gets to show off her operatic and scat chops in the miniplay 'The Girl in 14G,' and shares a light duet with Jason Alexander (reviving his musical theater career post-Seinfeld). Perhaps her 'Stranger Here Myself' isn't the weightiest you've ever heard, but this is an enjoyable album with a good deal of old-fashioned class, expertly accompanied by Rob Fisher and the Coffee Club Orchestra. --David Horiuchi



Customer Reviews
Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A must for fans of the genre.
This is the perfect showcase for the multitalented vocalist. She pays compliments to standards, and makes a few unknown songs all her own.


Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great singer and actress all in one
The first time I saw Kristin Chenoweth in a movie was the TV "Music Man". Just lately I listened to the "Wicked" soundtrack, and after that, I've been listening to Kristin's CDs whenever I can. This one is a jazzy, Broadway-type CD with fun, engaging songs. She's a different type of singer, and while not everyone might enjoy her voice, I really do. If you like Broadway, jazz, drama, romance, or just fun, catchy songs, this is a CD for you.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - I can see her in her voice!
Once you have seen Kristen Chenoweth in action (check out YouTube) you know not only what an extremely talented musician she is, but also how fabulous she is at acting out and conveying each piece to an audience. She is the WHOLE package! This CD is a great sampling of her extreme talents!


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - She is so talented
I hope she continues doing seperate albums on the side besides her beoadway albums. She sings in so many different stlyes and her voice is so beautiful in each. She gives such heart to every peice she sings.


Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Big Wow
A few years back I caught Kristin Chenoweth's socko boffo performance on a Boston Pops special on PBS and was suitably wowed. I had heard nothing but good things about her prior, but since Broadway is not my main musical interest, I admit I hadn't felt compelled to rush to check her out. Then a friend whose main musical interest is in fact, musicals played me a few tracks of the WICKED cast album, on which both Chenoweth and co-star Idina Menzel excelled (and were swell--hmm, maybe I should take ...
