BARBRA’s BACK! And this time she’s brought a friend…
Performed worldwide for over 25 years, wherever Steven Brinberg performs his breathtaking live homage to the greatest diva of all, Barbra Streisand, he receives the kind of ecstatic reviews Barbra herself would kill for!

He appeared by invitation from the late Marvin Hamlisch with the Symphony Orchestras of Dallas, Milwaukee, Buffalo and Norfolk, and with Barbara Cook and the National Symphony Orchestra at the Kennedy Center.
