"A low-key Elaine Stritch, winner of the cabaret female vocalist honor, apologized for being so soft spoken. Having completed a monthlong turn at the Cafe Carlyle, the caustic diva confessed to be 'so f....n' tired!'" Her rendition of "It Amazes Me" is called a "beautifully restrained take".

Brian Stokes Mitchell "the lusty Broadway baritone" gave a "stirring" off-mic performance of "This Nearly Was Mine."

Lifetime honoree Eartha Kitt is described as "lithe and lethal," "seductive," & "purring" her classic hit "C'est Ci Bon" & it's mentioned that she has a "seductive sense of wit and grace".

Bill Charlap and Sandy Stewart are described as giving "a lesson in studied poignancy with 'Where Do You Start?'"
