Perfectly
Frank
James Langton
and Dan Levinson‘s Sinatra Symphonette
Sunday, October 1 | 3:00 PM
Alongside his recording masterpieces, Frank Sinatra was
one of the biggest radio stars, with popular shows such as Your
Hit Parade, Broadway Bandbox and Songs by
Sinatra. In 1953, as he began recording at Capitol records, Sinatra
debuted on a new twice-weekly show, Perfectly Frank,
singing popular standards with his ‘symphonette’, a five-piece jazz
group which would go on to back Sinatra during his world tour in the
1960s.
Perennial favorite, Dan Levinson is joined by vocalist
James Langton to explore their mutual love of Frank Sinatra’s early
works. Levinson and Langton will be joined on stage by Steve Ash on
piano, James Chirillo on guitar, Rob Adkins on bass, and Kevin Dorn on
drums.
