Streisand in concert, 2006.

“Barbra Streisand and Toronto met each other last night at the Air Canada Centre and it was love at first sight ... A capacity crowd featuring everyone from Karen Kain to Mel Lastman cheered — no, roared — after virtually every number and interrupted the show with standing ovations on numerous occasions.

As for the lady herself, she was in spectacular voice, launching her final notes like arrows high into the air, arrows that soared to the heavens and never fell to earth.”

TORONTO CONCERT NOTES

  • Barbra rearranged the songs in Toronto, eliminating Il Divo's Second Act opener. She moved "Music of the Night" to Act One. For one night only (10/17) she replaced "Music" with "Where or When" as the Act Two opener.
  • Barbra spoke about Pierre Trudeau.  She mentioned him early in the show, saying how much she had always loved Canada and spoke about their relationship "in my other life, a long time ago." She mentioned an evening they spent together in Ottawa seeing the National Ballet as "one of the most exciting nights in my life" and said she thought of him when she sang "this song" – “The Way We Were.”
  • At the Oct. 17th show, in the second act during the Q&A segment, someone asked “What do you remember about Mr. Trudeau?” Barbra coyly fanned herself with an index card, indicating the memory of many steamy moments. When the laughter died down, she concluded “He was an extraordinary man. I had a wonderful adventure with him.”
  • At the Oct. 17th show, Barbra brought her dog Sammie onstage; Barbra introduced "Smile" by saying it was for the Humane Society.
  • Canadian figure skaters Brian Orser and Brian Boitano attended the 10/17/2006 show.
