Send In The Clowns: The Very Best Of Sarah Vaughan
Release Date: August 01, 2006 82876802732 CD Album Like a written signature, a musical signature is a vivid and distinct way of identifying an individual artist. In the case of a particular song or songs it reveals to the listener the landmarks of style and substance that have made the performer or composer both artistically significant and acclaimed in a popular sense. Sarah Vaughan’s voice and style were so extraordinary that Mel Tormé said of her, “She has the single best vocal instrument of any singer working in the popular field.” The proof is in this collection. This Signature Series Collection: The music in this collection is mostly taken from fairly late in Sarah’s career, but it once again shows her openness and ease with a variety of material. She could still belt out the show tune or standard, but she also worked with legendary composer Michel Legrand. And no jazz singer was better at interpreting the great Brazilian songbook. Sarah was at home with a small jazz group and could then turn around and stand out in front of a symphony orchestra (as she did with the Grammy®-winning Gershwin Live with Michael Tilson Thomas and the Los Angeles Philharmonic. A word about the recording of “Send In The Clowns” – it’s the original version of a song that she was to sing for the rest of her life. In fact, it was her most requested song and, as such, deserves note as a “signature” song. |
