Bernstein Centennial Tribute Concerts at Symphony Hall, with Keith Lockhart and the Boston Pops
South Shore Critic: “To end the program there was a segment devoted to the more “classical” songs, once again from Candide: The Best of All Possible Worlds, I Am Easily Assimilated, the rousing Make Our Garden Grow, and perhaps the composer's finest number, Glitter and Be Gay, hysterically delivered by Blume with her lyric coloratura."
Edge Media network calls her rendition of Little Bit in Love “winsome…exquisitely sung” and said that the “best was saved for last” with her Glitter and Be Gay “assured and hilarious”.
