Artist Greta Panettieri

New Release FLY ME TO SINATRA

Date of release November 14th 20204

Greta Panettieri transforms Frank Sinatra: the new album now on newsstands with Musica Jazz magazine

Exactly 10 years after the album Non gioco più, Greta Panettieri has returned to try her hand at a new and important reworking. In this album, also available with the online purchase of the magazine at the link https://www.musicajazz.it/abbonamenti/,Greta Panettieri reinterprets in an introspective and at the same time luminous way pearls such as Strangers in the Night, Fly Me to the Moon and My Way, but also more "dark" and extremely fascinating songs, such as the masterpiece by Tom Jobim and Chico Buarque The Song of the Sabiá - where a dense vocal arrangement in Bachian style serves as the basis for a Pindaric free solo, the iconic In The Wee Small Hours of the Morning by David Mann and Bob Hilliard and the fascinating One for My Baby by Harold Arlen and Johnny Mercer.


Greta Panettieri: "Frank Sinatra was a master of style in relationships, business and artistic challenges. For this new album of mine I drew inspiration more from his approach to the world of music than from his way of singing, which in my opinion remains inimitable. He was a true artist, a great innovator, the most soulful of his time. He was able to follow his instinct in music, cinema and beyond, without being influenced by fashion or genres. An attitude that I wanted to pursue myself in this new recording project of mine, which is also unique."
