ics of these songs,” he explains. “When
I play standards from the American
songbook and have more awareness
of the lyrics, I can put those feelings in
there even when there’s no singing.”
Hendelman, invited to record
on the Streisand album Love Is the
Answer, found the singer very natu-
ral and was pleased to be asked to
collaborate on a duet, “Some Other
Time.” The recording was made at
a New York jazz club, where the
audience was small and intimate.
A couple years later, he toured with
her and a full orchestra.
When the two were getting ready
to record a song by Jacques Brel with
the orchestra, Streisand had the
idea to pare the arrangement down
to a string quartet in the middle of
the song. During rehearsal with the
change, she decided to make the
music more intense for a more poi-
gnant touch.
“I thought her ideas were very
insightful, and they gave me more
appreciation for her as an artist,”
says Hendelman, who also has a

special fondness for his bookings on
many jazz cruises.
“Sometimes, on the cruises, we
see musicians we haven’t seen in
five or more years, and it’s just like
we saw them yesterday because jazz
is really kind of a small family. The
music starts in the morning and
goes late into the night. It’s a chance
to play and also hear some of our
friends join the company of great
jazz fans out on the ocean. What
could be wrong with that?”
Hendelman, whose two daughters
(Zoe, 10, and Sophia, 8) are build-
ing their interests in music, uses his
home studio to conduct workshops.
While enjoying those experiences, he
also likes presenting music in new
places, and that happens as he makes
his first appearance at Cliff Bell’s.
“I like to invite the audience into
our musical conversation and tell
them a little about the composi-
tions,” he explains. “Different coun-
tries and cultures have inspired my
music.” •
