BETTY BUCKLEY
Betty Buckley will return to the Cafe Carlyle this Tuesday, Feb. 15, for a five-week run and will preview songs from her newest CD, Heart to Heart, a collection of love songs that embrace contemporary, traditional and popular tunes. The CD features Buckley and pianist Kenny Werner who offer spare and elegant renditions of "Just the Way You Look Tonight," "How Deep Is the Ocean," "Ruby," "Fire and Rain," Mary Chapin Carpenter's "I Am a Town" plus two compositions penned by the actress herself, "If I Remember You Right" and "Violets." The disc also includes two songs from the recent production of Tennessee Williams' Camino Real in which Buckley starred for the Hartford Stage Company. In the liner notes for the new album, which will be available nationwide on March 28 on the newly formed KO (Knock Out) Productions label, Buckley explains, "The dimension of Heart to Heart is that of oneness. It is the state of longing and love that all of us have in common. It is the place of truth that resides in the heart of every being. It is very sweet and very powerful and to reach this realm one has but to remember that it always exists."
