| Throughout her illustrious career,
Tony Award-winning actress Bernadette Peters has dazzled audiences
and critics with her performances on stage and television, in concert,
and on recordings. In 2003, she received her seventh Tony Award
nomination for her electrifying portrayal of Momma Rose in Sam Mendes’
record-breaking Broadway revival of Gypsy, and her brilliant performance
was captured on the Grammy award-winning Gypsy cast recording. “Bernadette
Peters is a revelation!” Ben Brantley of The New York Times
declared of her star turn in the show. Peters’ latest Angel
Records CD, Sondheim, Etc., Etc.: Bernadette Peters Live at Carnegie
Hall (The Rest of It), features never-before-released highlights
from her historic 1996 highly anticipated solo debut at Carnegie
Hall. The concert was a benefit for Gay Men’s Health Crisis.
This performance was repeated in Bernadette Peters in Concert, her
London solo debut at Royal Festival Hall, which later was telecast
on PBS and is available on DVD.
