    What a career highlight for me to be the arranger of this medley! Liza and Lorna and I had such fun putting it together!

      Dearest Mr Stritch, I never knew you’d arranged this!!!!! It’s INCREDIBLE!!! You were so smart to include a couple of songs from Mama’s favourite musical, but the cherry on top for me were those bars from Over The Rainbow subtly brought in at the end of Sondheim’s tune, and how “not while I’m around” is made to sound exactly like “why oh why can’t I”? It gives me goosebumps and brings a tear to my eye EVERY TIME. Thanks ever so much! 💓

      Sussette Bjorklund Liza did not live in her mom’s shadow. Liza is an icon in her own right. Cabaret cemented Liza as a superstar and she’s always been her own person. As for Lorna, she had talent but no star power charisma. She did her thing tho and happily became a spokesperson for her mother’s legacy.

      Well... when your mother is literally one of the top 5 legends of all time... you don't really have a choice lol. When your parent is that big, seldom will their children reach the same type of legendary status... so I guess it just comes with the territory. But, they are both very awesome in their own right. And their mother was awesome and died at a young age... I'm sure it warms their hearts to know that we still love their mother and them! ……….And though Liza didn't reach the legendary status of her mother, no body can say she isn't her own superstar...no one. Liza is damn near a legend herself... but of course, no like her mama. Judy Garland is the 20th century, a star that bright cast an even bigger shadow... it would be damn near impossible to step out of that... I don't think ppl made them live in her shadow per se; they just really had no choice. But they seemed to be all very loving towards each other.

I have always wished they would do a tour together and just celebrate their legacy and their own talents. My heart goes out to all three of Judy' children and I pray they all find peace and joy in their lives and careers. At the end of the song i could hear Judy Garland tell them, "alright, take your bow." This was lovely.

    Both have such good voices and if I am going to be honest with myself, I feel that Luft has the better voice, in terms of tonality and the like. Minnelli, though, just has that 'one thing more' that her mother had in her voice, which doesn't have anything to do with 'voice', but that something that has the ability to move you, in one note, to tears. Me, like many, would love her/them, to do a 'Garland' album, as Natalie Cole, did. Would be enormous and a sensation. Won't happen but one can hope.

    There definately would not be a LIZA without a JUDY but LIZA is a member of the EGGOT club; she has an EMMY GRAMMY GOLDENGLOBE OSCAR & TONY; MOST entertainers will never be apart of that club. However, JUDY could have been apart of that club 10xs over but her substance abuse was strong. LIZA has had her substance abuse issues but I think her mother's fate is always at the forefront of her mind and she fights it. BOTH ICONS!!!!

    WOW!!!! this must be a dream, this can't be real. Liza and Lorna together doing an AWESOME act together!! you know their mother was watching from Heaven and cheering them on !!! the whole thing made me smile then brought me to tears because it ended too soon! They need to consider doing a stage show on Broadway based on this excerpt!

    You can feel Judy Garland all over their performance and right down to the outfits.
