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

One of the best ever!.......2007-04-24

Do I mean the best album or the best singer? You are correct if you said both! I saw Kristin Chenoweth on a PBS show "Broadway's Best at the Pops," (though it was not the first time I had heard her) and decided to check out the offerings here. This is a collection of the kind of music and performances I love. She has a great range, a precise pitch, and a great style that is at the same time true to the music and to herself. In an era when singers try to outdo each other re-interpreting the composer's original work, not usually with great success, she is a blessing!

Kristen Chenowith.......2007-02-26

I bought this CD for the Girl in 14G. Yes, it's that good...

Has its moments.......2007-02-19

After watching Candide endlessly and going to see Ms. Chenoweth in The Apple Tree, I was hungry for something more portable to listen to. At times this fits the bill, but what surprised me the most is how thin her voice comes across on this recording. Perhaps it was the joy of seeing her live that has ruined this listener; perhaps I need to upgrade my aging music system. Then again, maybe the recording is just not as good as Ms. C singing Bernstein or as good as staring at Ms. C command a Broadway stage.

Great CD!.......2007-01-19

I truly enjoy listening to this CD. Kristin Chenoweth's vocal style and abilities are very well-matched to the songs selected for this album. If you enjoy classic, older-style Broadway/popular tunes, I would highly recommend this CD. Ms. Chenoweth has a bright, expressive voice and does a fantastic job with this material.

As with any full-length CD, there are a couple of songs I am not as crazy about, but that has to do with the songs themselves, not Ms. Chenoweth's vocal performance. Overall, I love this album and have listened to it several times now, since receiving it as a Christmas gift last month.

This woman has what it takes, and then some..........2007-01-12

Kristin Chenoweth brings new life to some timeless Broadways tunes while introducing a few wonderful new ones. This high pitched vocal goddess effortlessly provides for a nearly flawless and easy listening experience. I definitly recommend this CD for anyone who enjoys jazz vocals, showtunes, or just a new spin on some old classics.

Album Description

Folk/Rock in the tradition of Fairport Convention, Steeleye Span and Mary Chapin Carpenter. In 1994, after 15 years performing together Cloud & Common Ground released this, their first full-length CD. The record was produced against the backdrop of Cheryl's valiant struggles with cancer. Despite their personal nature, the songs have a universal appeal and have touched many lives. One listen will highlight Cheryl's extraordinary gifts as a singer/songwriter/guitarist. Hey, the rest of the band ain't bad either! Cheryl Cloud (Vocals, Guitar, Hammer and Appalachian Dulcimers); Mark Cloud (Electric and Acoustic Guitars, Mandolin, Dulcimer, Keyboard, Bass); Marcy Hogan (Viola, Vocals); Scott Van Dusen (Drums, Percussion); Mike Tunstall (Bass, Vocals).

Hard Choices - A great CD,... and I should know!.......2000-11-22

Common Ground's first release, (actually their second, including the LP, "Leaving Love Behind") "Hard Choices" is an absolute masterpiece of music. The music really hits home as Cheryl Cloud sings about her struggles with Cancer (sadly, she passed away in 1995) and some of the finer things in life. Common Ground has always had a unique sound that was distinctly their own, and a rich, vibrant chemistry between each of the members.

If you enjoy unique and truly moving music, then this CD is for you! I understand that this expression is overused, and if you do not believe this, I encourage you to visit their website for more information and some samples of their truly wonderful music.
