Having recorded numerous Bergman songs during her career, Streisand planned What Matters Most as a chance to mine other gems from their extensive songbook. The deluxe edition includes a second disc containing the Bergman tunes that Streisand had previously recorded.[4]

At the 54th Grammy Awards What Matters Most was nominated for Best Traditional Pop Vocal Album. In its first week the album sold 68,000 copies in the United States, and 210,000 copies within a year.[5]


A Happening at Starbucks


In promotion of the album, Streisand's February performance at the MusiCares Person of the Year benefit was made available to view on the Starbucks Digital Network between August 23 and 30, 2011.[6][7]
