5.0 out of 5 stars A Broadway Diva - Debbie Gravitte, March 11, 2006

This review is from: Defying Gravity (Audio CD)
What can I say about Debbie Gravitte that hasn't alreay been said? Ms. Gravitte is one of the leaders of Broadway Show music interpretation. I have the distinct pleasure of seeing Ms. Gravitte on the stage. I remember years ago - seeing Debbie in Denver in Zorba. I remember her sensational rendition of the song "Life Is". I performance I have remembered many years later. Several years ago I witnessed Ms. Gravitte thrilling a audience in Arvada, CO with the premiere performance of Defying Gravity . I knew from that moment on the the music from Wicked was going to be truly special. Thank you Debbie Gravitte. Please, please don't loose your humor and I'm looking forward to seeing you on the Great White Way again.

5.0 out of 5 stars This is a great album., August 8, 2006
By 
Howard (Portland, OR USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Defying Gravity (Audio CD)
I heard Debbie sing with piano accompaniment in Delray Beach Florida last spring. The concert was lovely and I bought her CD there just to support her. Then I started listening to it and got hooked. The songs, orchestra, orchestrations, and Debbie's performances are first rate. This is a delightful and impressive display of great music and talent.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding album, January 26, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Defying Gravity (Audio CD)
I bought this CD without hearing any of the songs, and I'm so glad I did. What a powerfully rich and beautiful voice! Many of these are songs we've heard over and over, but they sound new when sung by Debbie Gravitte. If you enjoy Linda Eder, Nancy Lamott, or Laurie Beechman, I believe you'll really enjoy this album.
