Sep 16, 2014A very mixed-bag to be sure, but Streisand is in very fine voice - and the new arrangement of New York State of Mind with Billy Joel is very, very good. Again, it wouldn't kill Streisand to kick up the tempo, however. Everything she releases now is so sleepy. Remember the Stony End, Guilty, etc. days?

Dec 30, 2014There is nothing wrong with the voice of Streisand here, but the album fails because of almost everyone else. Every duet makes you long for the original rendition. A major disappointment.

Dec 31, 2022Barbra spoils a perfectly fine album with oversinging her duet partners just to make sure she remains on top all of the time.

Sep 19, 2014Most of the dozen tracks on Partners-- which features duet partners such as Michael Bublé, Andrea Bocelli and the singer’s son, Jason Gould--offer no such vantage [of a whole other way of looking at [a] song].... Yet there is strong work here--four songs that live up to the singer's stated ambition.

Sep 16, 2014Throughout, Streisand’s voice sound more robust than it has for some time, especially compared to her live performance last year in Brooklyn. But she has a tendency to oversing in an attempt to engage with her guests.

Sep 15, 2014Ultimately, Partners works as guided tour down Streisand's memory lane, and with her resonant voice still in supple shape, any excuse to hear her sing is a welcome invitation.
