Linda Eder appeared in a concert at the SUNY at Buffalo Center for the Arts last night. We were in attendance and enjoyed Linda Eder’s singing. For those of you who haven’t heard Eder’s music, she works the same side of the street as Barbra Streisand: Broadway music, standards, and mellowed out pop music. Eder put out a Christmas CD a couple years ago so we heard some of those songs. Eder’s latest CD, Now, provides a nice sample of her style. Check out the video below. GRADE: B+

I really like her work on THE SCARLET PIMPERNEL and on JEKYLL AND HYDE.
Linda Eder sang a song from JEKYLL AND HYDE, Scott. About 25% of last night’s concert were Christmas songs. Very enjoyable! If Linda Eder shows up in your neighborhood she’s well worth seeing and hearing.
