Come Fly with
Chris Pinnella
With Definitive
Sinatra Big Band
APRIL
13 @ 8 PM

Take a
journey back to 1966 with vocal powerhouse Chris Pinnella as
he performs the iconic “Sinatra at the Sands” album in
its entirety, backed by a 14-piece big band. The performance
will take place at 8 PM Saturday, April 13 at
the Axelrod Performing Arts Center.
Pinnella
will perform classic Sinatra tunes, definitely arranged by Quincy
Jones, including ‘Fly Me to The Moon,’ ‘Come Fly With Me,’ and ‘I’ve
Got You Under My Skin.’ The concert concludes with a few bonus
signature songs not on the album: ‘Lady is a Tramp,’ ‘My Way’ and, of
course, ‘New York, New York.’
Pinnella, a NJ
native like Old Blue Eyes himself, has known these songs since
childhood. He says, “Sinatra as an interpreter of songs is a
genius. The way he relates to a lyric and sings on it has always been
why he continues to endure. The music, the band, and the connection to
the audience – this concert has the definitive version of each Sinatra
hit.” Seamlessly capturing the essence of Sinatra, Pinnella is by no
means an impersonator.
“This
show is me singing Sinatra’s songs with his charts plus a big band,” he
said. “We honor him by keeping his legacy and his music alive with the
hope that future generations keep it.
