Rose began her entertainment career at the age of five. She headlined at her kindergarten graduation. Rose brought the house down with her rendition of "Where, oh where has my little dog gone?" She has been bringing the house down ever since!
   For the past 30 years, Rose has performed at hundreds of clubs all over the world. She was a lounge act in Las Vegas in the late 60's, working at the Desert Inn, Flamingo, Thunderbird and others. She returned to the New York area in the 70's to raise her family and continued to play clubs in and around New York City, New Jersey, Connecticut and upstate New York. Through the years, Rose has written over 100 original songs. It was her exceptional song writing ability, coupled with her unique performance style that brought her to the attention of Dolphin Records. In addition to her independent CD's, she was signed to a multi-record deal. Her first release from Dolphin Records was "Merry Christmas Baby."
   Cadence Magazine wrote; "Bonanza has a jazz-oriented singing voice with a touch of sensuality to it. Rose has great phrasing and enunciation. She sets a romantic mood with a lovely reading of perennial classics. A sense of sultriness oozes from her tone on more sentimental tunes, but she can shed that image on more playful cuts. She creates either a sentimental or happy mood depending upon the song, but they are all sung with heart. She did a nice job!"
   On her performing style, critics in Stockholm, Sweden said of Rose, "She is a classic lounge singer, a sultry torch singer, a female Frank Sinatra." It has been said of Rose that she is a perfect marriage of talent and material, especially her original songs, consummated with brilliance. Overheard by a '30 Something' couple after her recent, sold-out Valentine's Day performance at Thalian Hall, Wilmington, N.C., "This is the most romantic thing we've done together since our wedding day!" Rose can bring a tear to your eye and a smile to your heart.
   This new CD holds many great treasures. Rose displays her signature voice in the whimsical way she sings; "You Better Go Now," or her very own creation (one of many), "A Charming Illusion," or even the more open and brassier, "Adios to You." Her music is it's own message. She puts the breath of life into her music and life just seems to take off! You will be completely taken by her sensitivity, technique and clarity. She projects feelings and shading without losing articulation, clarity and delivery.
   She can paint pictures with her voice! In the beginning of her career, musicians marveled at her talent and ability. She seems to convey the meaning of the lyrics, while she reaches for the y .. emotional depth of each song. She shows sensitivity to the musical content of the songs that other singers could only dream about. Interpretation is a profoundly personal emotion, yet many of her fans share how her singing and talent move them. Her variations are often stunning in their harmonic sophistication, as you the listener can hear on this CD. To all of Rose's fans, past, present and future- enjoy!
