About the performers:

Barbara Lowin - After ten years as a child star in her native Toronto, a Bachelor of Music from the Juilliard School and participation in the Master Classes with the legendary soprano Maria Callas,  she sang opera, operetta, song recitals, orchestra concerts, and made numerous appearances with CBC TV in Canada. In Europe she appeared with the Welsh National Opera and the orchestras of Dusseldorf and Duisburg. Barbara has also performed for Presidents Ford and George W. Bush, as well as for Queen Elizabeth II.

Having a particular interest in songs—whether Beethoven/Mozart or Gershwin/Cle Porter—she embraced the art of "cabaret" with pianist Paul Greenwood. In their 30-year collaboration, they have performed 12 different cabaret shows together, one most recently in Vienna.

In the world of classical song, she often sang the music of titanic Austrian composer Gustav Mahler, while at the same time learning that at the turn of the 19th into 20th centuries the women of Central Europe had begun to be liberated, she decided to portray Alma Mahler, widow of Gustav Mahler in performance. Thus was born OUTRAGEOUS! which she created with Paul Greenwood and directed by Gretchen Cryer.

Paul Greenwood - Pianist Paul Greenwood is one of the most sought-!after musicians in New York. His early study of composition enhances his talent to improvise in any style be it the classics, popular or jazz. Some of the many film and Broadway artists he has worked with are Anita Gillette,  Penny Fuller, Helen Gallagher. He and Barbara Lowin have made music together in their frequent cabaret shows for over 30 years.
