Fantastic heart-on-the-sleeve American standards in new arrangements designed to flatter any singer, with interesting harmonies and accompaniments. The arrangements are in the spirit of the performance tradition established by singers such as Judy Garland, Tony Bennett, Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Peggy Lee and others. Keys have been carefully chosen and will be comfortable for most voices. The book contains arrangements for voice and piano accompaniment, plus a section of “fake book”-style arrangements convenient for performing. The accompanying audio includes great performances of each song by a singer backed by piano, bass and drums, as well as trio accompaniment tracks only for practice or performance.
