Before Sandi Patty was a Christian music star, she developed her craft by performing stage standards and pop tunes from the Great American Songbook. Broadway Stories reaffirms her mastery of such material against gorgeous backdrops provided by the 64-piece Prague Symphony Orchestra. From the first track to the last, Patty shows an easy command of the Broadway idiom, applying her formidable pipes to material worthy of her talents. Her setlist is diverse and a little daring; a Sound of Music medley and a bittersweet take on “Send in the Clowns” are complemented by less-expected choices like Charlie Chaplin’s “Smile.” Patty especially has fun during “A Doll Sings the Guys”: a zesty medley of Cabaret’s “Wilkommen,” Fiddler on the Roof’s “If I Were a Rich Man” and other tunes made famous by male singers. She gets to smolder soulfully on Show Boat’s “Can’t Help Lovin’ Dat Man” and soar to inspirational heights on Carousel’s “You’ll Never Walk Alone.” Less grandiose but just as winning is her sweet, swinging version of “All of Me.”
