I had the great pleasure of hearing Ms. Horne up close in a Chicago theatre in the '80s, and mixing live sound for Mr. Bennett several times in the '70s. Their performances were best described as magical. She was absolutely radiant! These songs are as much the product of Mr. Arlen as of the lyricists who turned them into the songs we remember. They heard here were Ted Koehler, Yip Harburg, and Johnny Mercer.
Oh my. Have to take a breath. I thought: 'Tony, do you dare stand next to this woman?' Yes, he does. And not many on earth could. Rare talents, and I am grateful.
Tony & Lena toured in the 70's, luckily went twice to Shubert Theater in Century City and they were really incredible, Lena came out did her concert then Tony, at the end duets & evening was magical...never again talent like these two!
Lena Horne really comes alive in the last five minutes. They are two of the best talents this world has ever seen! I'm not sure how well their voices blend in certain parts but it is still very entertaining to watch these two icons.
A couple of great voices that blend well together and sing with fabulous solo contrasts a medley of Arlen classics. Let's have more, Mr. Bennett! I'm eager to get your CD with Diana Krall and your homage to the immortal Gershwins.
With all due respect, I was not overly impressed. It was to long, Tony's voice rarely blended with Lena's and he hit a couple of clinkers. And if I can notice them, they had to be pretty bad, considering i'm somewhat tone deaf. I liked Lena most of the time, but, she tried at times to put way to much into the song. Harold Arlen is unquestionably Judy's favorite composer. At Carnegie Hall on 4/23/1961 she just finished singing Come Rain Or Come Shine, with Mr. Arlen sitting right in front of her. And she said, HAROLD DARLING, STAND-UP and introduced him to her audience, and said we do most of his song thru the whole Concert. When she made A Star Is Born who did she want to do the score Harold Arlen and Yip Harburg, but, Yip was unavailable, so Judy had to settle for some little known lyricist named Ira Gershwin to write the lyrics. The Man That Got Away. It was a much better song than "Three Coins In A Fountain"

I just Love them 💯
Lena, Lena, Lena! What a woman, what a style, what a voice, La Lena!
Enjoyed these duets & paying tribute to Harold Arlen,one of America's finest musicians.
Unbelievable duo of two of the major voices of jazz! A real treasure.

Was just thinking the exact same. Tony dieted with Lady Gaga, that's good too.
Music sung as it was meant to be sung! Two icons!
They were great together
Lena just coasts when she sings. She lives the song.
Great description!
This is great music sung by two of the best vocalists.
Lena Horne...that's stage presence!

Never cared for her voice..orcstyle ..but what an awesome lady
What does this have to do with "Judy Garland?"
Cathy Cartee because Lena, and tony both were associated with Judy Garland at one point in their careers
It was sung on the Judy Garland Show
le probleme de mes reins je suis aller chez le spécialiste je n,ai rien se sont les médicaments donner par nos chers médecins qui ont fait le probleme je suis normale maintenant cadeau pour moi sa fait un ana que je ne vais plus au médical de la résidence
Tony Bennett is singing flat throughout most of this.
