Voice Lessons Audiobook Summary
“Cara Mentzel’s voice is crisp and clear as she narrates her own story of growing up as Broadway star Idina Menzel’s little sister. The relationship between sisters is a complex one, and listeners will feel all the love and, at other times, all the pain in Cara’s voice.” — AudioFile Magazine
This program is read by Cara Mentzel, with a forward from her big sister, Idina Menzel. Also included is a bonus interview and an exclusive duet of the sisters performing the song ‘Never Never Land.’
Voice Lessons is the story of one younger sister growing up in the shadow of a larger-than-life older sister – looking up to her, wondering how they were alike and how they were different and, ultimately, learning how to live her own life and speak in her own voice on her own terms.
As Cara Mentzel, studied, explored, married, gave birth (twice) and eventually became an elementary school teacher, she watched her sister, Idina Menzel, from the wings and gives listeners a front row seat to opening night of Rent and Wicked, a seat at the Tonys, and a place on the red carpet when her sister taught millions more, as the voice of Queen Elsa in the animated musical Frozen, to “Let It Go.” Voice Lessons is the story of sisters–sisters with pig tails, sisters with boyfriends and broken hearts, sisters as mothers and aunts, sisters as teachers and ice-queens, sisters as allies and confidantes.
As Cara puts it, “My big sister is Tony-Award-Winning, Gravity-Defying, Let-It-Go-Singing Idina Menzel who has received top billing on Broadway marquees, who has performed for Barbra Streisand and President Obama, at the Super Bowl and at the Academy Awards. The world knows her as ‘Idina Menzel’, but I call her ‘Dee’.” Voice Lessons is their story.
