Michele Bautier has a style that expresses her personal love and emotion which she brings to each song. She has a spontaneity and passion with a voice that is an instrument of exceptional range and purity. Her arrangement of ‘Love for Sale’ will bring tears to your eyes.

Michele has been a Broadway star and plays not only New York’s best nightclubs but also performs Internationally. Her Broadway experience made her aware of how to read the audience giving her a personal touch so that she seems to be singing to everyone individually. When she sings "I Get a Kick Out of You", "Willow Weep for Me" or "My Funny Valentine" you’ll hear the range and precision she has perfected over the years. Her voice is so smooth and defined those standards will sound new and refreshing.

As always the Diva Series at the centrally located Watchung Arts Center brings you the finest of female voices. We take special pride in being able to bring these fine artists into our community at such a low ticket price. Don’t miss this wonderful performance.
