Classical Barbra[1] is the eighteenth studio album by American singer Barbra Streisand, released in February 1976. It was recorded in 1973 and consists of songs by classical European composers and includes tracks sung in English, French, Occitan, German, Italian and Latin. The music is performed by the Columbia Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Claus Ogerman.
Leonard Bernstein wrote of the album, "Barbra Streisand's natural ability to make music takes her over to the classical field with extraordinary ease. It's clear that she loves these songs. In her sensitive, straightforward, and enormously appealing performance, she has given us a very special musical experience."
The album has been certified Gold in the United States for sales of 500,000 on May 5, 1999.[2] In 2013 the album was remastered and 2 bonus tracks were added.[3]
