Album Notes & Community Reviews

Intended as an intimate, highly romantic exploration of classic pop standards, this beautifully paced session features the unparalleled vocalist backed by sweeping, subtly arranged orchestrations from Frank De Vol. Stripping back the aggressive big band swing of her live sets, the recording emphasizes her breathtakingly pure tone and flawlessly controlled vibrato. The remarkably sweet, tender performances remain a quintessential hallmark of mid-century adult-contemporary sophistication.
