A new release from Kristin Chenoweth in any shape or form is always a treat and this latest one doesn’t disappoint. Chenoweth is one of those extremely rare artists who can seemingly turn her talents to anything from operatic aria to musical theatre, ballads, comedy, serious – oh, why bother trying to list everything, she is a musical treasure.

This new album is so smoky and smooth that you simply drift away into a lovely warm pool of dark chocolate and luxuriate in the perfection. The title of the album says it all: The Art of Elegance. Not only are the songs elegant, but their treatment is stylish and performed to perfection.

The album has some wonderful standards such as ‘Someone to Watch Over Me’, ‘I’ve Got a Crush On You’, ‘Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered’, ‘The Very Thought of You’, ‘A House is Not a Home’, ‘Skylark’, and others making up the 13 tracks on this delightful CD.

With the help of deceptively simple arrangements showing off Chenoweth’s voice as the sparkling jewel that it is, and the addition of the sultry saxophone of Dave Koz on a couple of tracks, this album is enchanting.

Whether playing it in the car to soothe road rage, sitting at home with the lights turned down low, or luxuriating in a lovely hot bath, this is one of those albums where the cares of the day just seem to melt away when you are listening to it.

I have to admit that it has been on repeat ever since I received my review copy and has quadrupled my love for this artist. ---Nick Wakeham, musicaltheatrereview.com
