“The Secret Of Life: Partners”, the second volume, will be released next week — a new album with which the legendary singer, actress, and director, two-time Oscar winner, continues the journey started with “Partners” in 2014, a star-studded project featuring artists like John Mayer, Stevie Wonder, Andrea Bocelli, and Elvis Presley.

The 11 tracks feature the 83-year-old, a 10-time Grammy winner, alongside international musicians with a wide range of styles, CE Report quotes ATA.

In addition to fellow legends Dylan and McCartney, there are younger voices like Hozier and Sam Smith, as well as James Taylor, Sting, Seal, and Josh Groban, country music star Tim McGraw, Icelandic jazz vocalist Laufey, and a remarkable trio with Mariah Carey and Ariana Grande.

“Old friends, colleagues, young artists. I admire them all,” said the superstar at the heart of this project.

Barbra has been the lead voice in many duets throughout her long career with artists from all musical genres.

Among them: Judy Garland, Neil Diamond, Barry Gibb, Kris Kristofferson, Donna Summer, Bryan Adams, Celine Dion, and many other legends.

Of all the new collaborations, the most surprising is with Dylan.

“He used to send me flowers, write me notes in colored pencil asking me to sing with him. I didn’t understand it at the time,” Barbra told The New Yorker.

Streisand, who published a monumental 1,000-page memoir two years ago, was just 13 when she recorded her first amateur album.
