Streisand talks about the upcoming duets album she’s working on with ‘Babyface’ Edmonds that features her first duet with her son, Jason Gould.

According to Streisand, “When I heard the things he’s recorded, the musicianship, the sound of his voice, it’s like he has a little chamber music orchestra right in his vocal chords.” When Couric asks what other musicians she would like to sing with, Streisand responds: “I like Keith Urban, I like Usher and John Legend. You know there are some really good guys around.”

Couric and Streisand discuss the icon’s ongoing influence for the next generation of performers including Glee’s, Lea Michele and Streisand also opens up her sixteen year marriage with James Brolin, her brand new album, “Release Me,” and her passion project, the Barbra Streisand Women’s Heart Center at Cedars-Sinai in Los Angeles.
