Celebrating Sinatra

Twenty years since the death of Frank Sinatra on May 14 1998, Moira Stuart salutes his musical legacy with great recordings spanning four decades from the 1950s to the 1980s.

Moira Stuart salutes his musical legacy with tracks from a treasure trove of albums including The Concert Sinatra, Where Are You?, Sinatra At The Sands (with The Count Basie Orchestra), Songs For Swingin' Lovers and She Shot Me Down. Featuring the work of arrangers including Nelson Riddle, Gordon Jenkins, Don Costa and Billy May, Moira explores the full breadth of Frank Sinatra's catalogue and examines how his work remains just as relevant and as popular today as it ever was. Featuring Pennies From Heaven, I've Got You Under My Skin, My Kind of Town, Fly Me To The Moon, It Might As Well Be Spring and Monday Morning Quarterback.
