Brooklyn-born Barbra Streisand can act, direct and make audiences howl. But her singing, marked by rich interpretative skills and her gorgeous timbre, cemented her place in the world's pop-cultural firmament—and listeners' hearts. Streisand's strong, soaring mezzo-soprano can handle pathos-drenched showtunes and fiery disco anthems with equal vigour, and her roster of duet partners is a testament to how she can hold her own in any pairing. This playlist offers only a hint of Streisand's towering contributions to America's pop canon.
