Hana Ryu's second half solo song was O Sole Mio. It was the best song that he did and the one that got him a standing ovation.

Great concert. Jackie's voice sounded wonderful in this concert hall, which is why I came back here again. Doesn't look like much from the outside, but acoustically it's a real gem. It's funny that I don't play Memories at home unless I play the whole album. But it's always one of my favorites in concert. MOTN was my very favorite tonight. She seemed to hold the last low note for quite a long time. This was my first concert with only Peter for accompaniment. The Prayer was easily the best of the duets. I think Hana Ryu sounded much better when he sang loudly than when he sang softly. I guess that's why he's a member of "Forte". He was most entertaining when he sang O Sole Mio, wagging his finger while he held long notes. He drank out of Jackie's water bottle, so I hope he doesn't have a cold or anything. Nessun Dorma was sung better than anyone else could ever sing it. It was just perfect, with Jackie smiling as the audience clapped and cheered for the third "vincero". Of the Christmas songs, I could have done without White Christmas. I really wish she would have done Little Drummer Boy instead. O Holy Night was wonderful, as it always is. I didn't like the medley as much as I thought I would. I would prefer it without the comments before each excerpt and it was disappointing not hearing the great endings to CTP and TOM. Peter sounded great singing along on Safe and Sound. Jackie said she liked making the video with her little sister whom she loves. But I would have preferred Writings On the Wall. Lovers and TLP were excellent, as always.

Why wasn't Hana Ryu part of the promo?!?!?! BAD TeamE! Was he a last-minute addition? They still should have promo'd his appearance. Hopefully Mike took some vids & will post on Jackie's channel... [no luck yet, 10:42 AM EST] Many thanks to fans for the concert reviews!

Thanks for the addition, I know I had heard it before but the name simply would not come to my mind. Also, my impression on attendance was 3/4 of the floor and 1/2 to 5/8s of the balcony. Respectable, but far from sold out.

Respectable, but far from sold out. I checked out the attendance, too, and agree that it was respectable. It was only a bit less attended than the last concert here, which was in April and not the day after Thanksgiving. The audience was enthusiastic. From the two concerts in Morristown and two concerts in Red Bank, I'd say New Jersey is still solid Jackie country. It was funny when Jackie talked about how her dad grew up there and was sad to leave. Then said, "But then he would never have met my mom...and I wouldn't exist!"

The very late announcement, and lack of publicity of Hana Ryu's participation, must mean it was something of a last minute thing. Good work, on the part of whoever it was that made the contact and set it up, and on the part of Hana Ryu, who must have put in some work to get up to speed on the duets. I'm hoping it means more collabs with Forte- with more publicity.
