HER BEST!!
She jokes during the concert that her hometown grew, but she didn't. God made her petite for a reason. God said, "Don't worry, I got this. I've got a very special gift just for you, just because you're little." You see how small she is, and then you hear that magnificient voice! She's incredible! Kristen saved her best for her hometown family. LOVE THIS CD!!

Small Package...Great BIG Talent
Good things come in small packages; and this is a fantastic performance by the 4' 11" very talented Kristin Chenoweth. Of course I'm partial to theater and film music, and Kristin's unique voice lends much credibility to the music selections; you'll enjoy them all. Pay particular attention to FOR GOOD in which she is joined by Axyl Longford...an young lady with an equally powerful and eloquent voice and the talent that highlights this counterpoint duet - the capstone message of WICKED. The recording is from a live performance at Broken Arrow OK where Kristin grew up and it makes one want to see the performance itself (it will be on PBS they say). And the Broken Arrow High School choir lends their equally beautiful voices to several numbers too. Must be something special about vocal talents of Broken Arrow OK.

Small package of dynamite
I love Kristin Chenoweth, from her appearances in West Wing to Wicked. As I live in Australia I have seen the Australian production but I was picturing Kristin while I was watching. The concept of this CD is remarkable, going back to the home town to do a concert and including in the show the choir from her old school. The banter between the songs is interesting and sometimes humorous. The selection of songs is good with some from musicals including Wicked, from previous a CD and an old standard. All beautifully performed. I am very happy I purchased it.

Kristin Chenoweth - Artist
Miss Chenoweth performed before her hometown audience in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. Her singing, captured on this CD, is remarkable in range, beauty and delivery. If your taste in music is to hear only the best, you should add this recording toyour collection.

Outstanding in front of an audience!
I love all of her albums. But something special happens when she is in front of an audience. She's like the great singers of the past who needed someone to sing to. Just lovely!

Kristin Chenoweth is Fabulous!
This is Kristin Chenoweth at her best! Ms. Chenoweth recorded the concert in her home town of Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. Her dialogue intersperses nicely with the songs. I received the digital CD a month ago and have listed to it at least a dozen times. For the first time, I have a CD that contain no songs that need to be skipped over. My two favorite songs are "Hard Times Come Again No More" and "Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again". If I could, I would give this 10 stars.

Best live album I've heard in a long long time
This CD is perfection. Forget the "patter" before some of the songs as a negative reviewer has mentioned and just listen to KC's voice. A rich and beautiful soprano that she uses perfectly on every number. There's not a bad track on this recording. Best cut on the album was written by her self professed favorite composer Jerome Kern. "All the Things You Are" is a vocal master class and goosebump inducing.....I LOVE THIS DISK......it will not disappoint...I give it 5 stars, not 4.... ***** A great example of a very special TRUE ARTIST performing at the highest level. Kristen Chenoweth is a true musical genius.

Christine Chenoweth has a fantastic voice, think she could sing anything. It is a live concert
We ordered this cd and it came just over a day, very good service. The cd is great, we also have the dvd and Kristin Chenoweth has such a fantastic voice, think she could sing anything including opera! It is a live concert she recorded when she returned to her home town in Oklahoma, so you do get clapping. So pleased i got this album, i also have Let yourself go, and that is great too if you are a lover of musical theatre dont hesitate!!

Tiny tot Top Voice
This little Lady can certainly Belt em out . One or two strange song choices. Liked Bring Him Home track. But worth a punt
O**.
You have to love her.
This isn't my favourite Kristin Chenoweth album, only because though she is a charmer, less talk and more of her wonderful voice singing would have helped. I know it is taken from a television special, and it is special, but some of the songs get a little short-shift. Her weakest performance - and it is still really good - is the first song which is not quite in the right key to demonstrate the lady's perfect voice, and perhaps she takes it too fast and was nervous about being 'home'. But after that - clear the tracks, cause this is a great trip.But it is time to stop talking about her being shorter than average. She has a very large spirit, huge soul, and gigantic talent.
