      Details: Amazon.ca This Toronto soprano attracted major buzz in the late '90s for doing something relatively novel: performing 20th-century art and cabaret songs in a stately but unfussy manner, sometimes in rock clubs. O'Callaghan's second album features songs by Kurt Weill, Arnold Schoenberg, and relative newcomer Leonard Cohen. Slow Fox's light mood is refreshing after other contemporary--and far more world-weary--excursions into the works of Weill and other songwriters of Germany's Weimar era by Ute Lemper and Marianne Faithfull. Ably assisted by pianist Robert Kortgaard and a band, O'Callaghan acquits herself particularly well on the Schoenberg songs and Cohen's "Take This Waltz" and "Hallelujah," but Slow Fox's air of polite reserve becomes stifling. Despite O'Callaghan's engaging qualities as a performer, the arrangements (mostly by accordionist Claudio Vena) don't hold enough surprises for the listener or pose many challenges to the singer. Nevertheless, Slow Fox makes for uncommonly classy dinner music. --Jason Anderson Product Description O'callaghan, Patricia
