Summary: Marvelous!
Comment: Yes, You ARE There! It has a cabaret intimacy, and sensuousness. This is a perfect jazz recording with the combo of Roberta and Hank Jones. Roberta's voice has a certain confidence and brightness. And when first hearing her sing i thought Je ne sais Quoi? It felt like the rush and sparkle as from a fine wine. Explanation?....the warm Italian ambiance is apparent. She definitely reminds us of Carmen McCrae---but without the melancholy undertones, and more like bliss instead. Anyway, isn't it a good thing to be compared to the gold standard (Carmen)? Here's a generous CD with 14 tracks and three pages of liner notes all written by Roberta. Sweet.

Summary: Beautiful music!
Comment: Just got this CD for my commuting time in the car. What a wonderful companion to have, as I try to unwind from the week's work and prepare for a quiet and peaceful weekend.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Wonderful duo
Comment: The legendary pianist, Hank Jones (who was Ella Fitzgerald's pianist in the 50's) and rising star Roberta Gambarini bring a delightful hour of listening to those who love the standards. This is a sure winner.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: The tradition is alive and well indeed
Comment: It's refreshing to hear a vocalist that so clearly comes out of Carmen McRae instead of the usual Ella and Sassy descendants. Roberta Gambarini does an amazing job at taking you back in time with her vocal style; still, it's not just a remake of what was done half a century ago - it's very personal, here and now. Add the piano of the one and only Hank Jones, the accompanist/pianist who in his old age still shows what music is all about, and you have a remarkable duet record that proves just how alive and vibrant music rooted deeply in tradition can be.

Summary: Roberta Excellence
Comment: Terrific Entertainment by a top notch singer. I would recommend this album to anyone who appreciates truly fine vocal. I would purchase other titles from her library. Roberta is a wonderful singer.
