A multicultural musical potpourri, Barbra's fifth television spectacular is her most adventurous. Performing a startling array of new songs and classic hits, with genre-bending arrangements, Barbra Streisand... And Other Musical Instruments is a feast for the eyes and ears. Starring the ultimate "musical instrument," Barbra Streisand, together with over 150 musicians playing everything from the traditional violins, cellos, flutes, and oboes... to the more exotic kabuki woodblock, sitar, Chippewa tom-tom, sewing machine... saw... orange-juice squeezer, and washing machine! Featuring the timeless duet of "Crying Time" with "Genius of Soul" Ray Charles.
