In the August issue of Opera News(with Patti Lupone and Stephanie Blythe on the cover) there's a focus on crossovers between opera, Broadway and film. In one of the articles they ask various stage performers what opera role they fantasize about doing. Bernadette's answer is Lauretta from Puccini's Gianni Schicchi because she loves the aria "O mio babbino caro". She says she used to sing it during her lessons while pretendeing to be an opera singer. I thought that was an interesting tidbit.

There's also a lengthy, very positive review of her R&H CD which begins:

"Despite her long stage, film and television career, BP has never done enough work in the rocording studio. It's rare that she comes up with a solo CD, but when she does, it's usually a winner,as with the current BP Loves R&H, which shows that this effortlessly youthful fifty-four-year old artist remains at the peak of her form."

He then discusses each track and concludes, "Things are over all too soon. Like all the best showbiz veterans, Peters leaves you wanting more."
