Barbra Streisand, who seldom performs concerts, is scheduled to put on a show at the small New York jazz club where she opened for Miles Davis 48 years ago, according to a Reuters report.
The ultimate diva will play a solo date at the 123-capacity Village Vanguard on September 26, three days before the release of her new album “Love Is the Answer,” a collection of jazz standards.
Tickets will be given away to fans who either purchase the CD in advance or fill out an entry form.
Streisand last toured in 2006, when her shows grossed more than $92 million, according to Billboard Boxscore, setting house gross records in 14 of the 16 arenas it played.
Complete details about the concert and tickets are available at barbrastreisand.com.

I'm not sure why she's so popular, but scalpers will make a killing on these tickets.

I can only hope to be one of the lucky ones since she has been my number one female vocalist since I started buying music at more years than I wish to say. Thank you, Barbra, for giving us another chance to hear you. Hopefully her performance will be taped and aired at a future date.

She is revered because she is the greatest female singer and talent on the planet. Period.
