My father had lived in the States in the 1960s for a while and came to love American Songbook material. Even today, he sometimes recognizes singers that I never even heard of, which is beautiful and inspiring. Anat Cohen 1960samericanbeautiful share on social

I feel like sometimes I get even more goofy onstage than I am offstage. I'm not trying to make the music less than what it is.
