At the conclusion of her London concert,Bernadette sings two beautiful songs:"I'll Be Seeing You" and "You're Lovely", and I thought that a CD of some standards of Berlin,Cole Porter,Gershwin,etc.would be great! Wouldn't that be a beautiful CD? Has she ever considered recording such songs?
To the loveliest lady of song!
You will keep on giving me joy forever...

Yes, yes, yes!!
I had very similar thoughts on hearing those two on the DVD.
There are some '30s and '40s/WWII songs/ballads that are perfect for her. I'd love such a CD (I wouldn't mind another R&H CD either).
That would make me very  .

One of my dreams has been that Bernadette would record a series of songbook albums something along the lines of the classic ones that Ella Fitzgerald made in the fifties, with each CD representing the work of one great composer. It would be an ambitious undertaking, but what a tremendous legacy to leave! The R&H recording was a good start. Before it came out I thought "yes they were great, but not particular favorites of mine", yet I ended up falling in love with that CD and playing it constantly. It really opened up their music to me in a new way. I too would love a second Rodgers and Hammerstein recording to be part of this projected "Great American Songbook" project.
