FRANK SINATRA & Friends

Performers:

Gerhard Aflenzer Broadway Big Band
Werner Auer, vocals
Dorothea Jaburek, vocals
Stella Jones, vocals, special guest
Gerhard Aflenzer, direction

»He is the Mercedes of men«, is how Marlene Dietrich described Frank Sinatra. He is the Rolls Royce of entertainers, as the legendary diva put it.
Unforgotten and unrivalled to this day, he lives on in his countless worldwide hits. The concert programme of the Gerhard Aflenzer Broadway Big Band was born out of enthusiasm for the music of the so-called Rat Pack.
For all friends and fans of Old Blue Eyes, Dino and Sammy, the best and most famous titles of these great entertainers have been selected. All those songs that are associated with nights in New York and Las Vegas,will certainly not be missing from this programme.
The vocalists present unforgettable hits with which the Rat Pack once made all women weak. Enjoy songs such as »That's Life«, »Mr Bojangles«, »New York, New York« or »The Lady Is A Tramp«.

Special guest for this concert is Stella Jones – a great soul and jazz singer, pianist, arranger and composer. She is the daughter of the American bebop trumpet player Carmell Jones and the blues singer and Fluxus artist Christine Jones. She can look back on engagements with Taylor Dayne, Gloria Gaynor, Chaka Khan and the Vienna Symphonic Orchestra Project, among others.

A must for every »Rat Pack«-fan.
»From the east to the west, your swinging guest«
