Summary:For 40 years, Maureen Forrester has performed in concert and on records with such conductors as Bruno Walter, Herbert von Karajan, Fritz Reiner, George Szell, Leonard Bernstein, Pablo Casals, Zubin Mehta and Seiji Ozawa. In the second half, Forrester sings cabaret songs by Warrack that look back, mostly with humor, at her life and career. ``I've been singing sad songs all my life. It's wonderful to have fun on stage and hear an audience laugh,'' says Forrester. ``I get such a kick out of the songs David wrote for me. When an audience sees how much fun we're having, they have fun too.''
