This Sunday: Levinson and Langton perform their Sinatra Favorites on October 1!

 

 

 

 

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 ParadeBroadway 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.
