A 3CD collection featuring the legendary Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett and Frank Sinatra and the modern masters of the genre Jamie Cullum and Diana Krall.
“This compilation CD is a personally curated collection of, in my opinion, the best of The Great American Songbook. But what is the Great American Songbook? In simplest terms it is the canon of the most enduring and popular songs and jazz standards composed between 1920 and 1950’s. For the most part written for Broadway and Hollywood musicals It features compositions by the likes of George and Ira Gershwin, Irving Berlin, Jerome Kern, Harold Arlen, Rogers and Hart, Cole Porter and Johnnie Mercer to name but a few. It is perhaps America’s sole indigenous art form and it is not a stretch to call it, as others have, ‘America’s Classical Music.”
