SUMMARY:The Enigmatic Life of Frank Sinatra
DESCRIPTION:Sinatra’s career took flight from the Rustic Cabin in Englewood Cliff\, NJ\, when trumpeter Harry James rescued him from the ranks of singing waiters in 1939. Yet not until Tommy Dorsey coaxed him into his band later that year did Sinatra begin to soar as the idol of the bobby-soxers. Within three years\, he led the male singer polls in both Billboard and Downbeat magazine and by 1946 his discs for Columbia Records were selling 10 million copies a year. \nThe evening’s fare will also sample Sinatra’s forty-year movie career. Teaming with Gene Kelly in two early films\, Anchors Away and On the Town\, Sinatra appeared in fifty-six films including From Here to Eternity\, in which he won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. Enjoy clips from those films and others including Guys and Dolls with Marlon Brando\, Pal Joey co-starring Rita Heyworth and Kim Novak\, The Manchurian Candidate and two of Cole Porter’s movie scores\, Can-Can and High Society\, which paired Sinatra with his childhood idol\, Bing Crosby.

SUMMARY:The Enigmatic Frank Sinatra
DESCRIPTION:Baritone Frank Sinatra was indisputably the 20th century’s greatest singer of popular song. Though influenced by Bing Crosby’s crooning\, and by learning from trombonist Tommy Dorsey’s breath control and blues singer Billie Holiday’s rhythmic swing\, Frank Sinatra mainstreamed the concept of singing colloquially\, treating lyrics as personal statements and handling melodies with the ease of a jazz improviser. His best work is standards —Cole Porter\, Irving Berlin\, Jerome Kern\, and the Gershwins —but Sinatra\, despite his 1957 denunciation of rock & roll as degenerate\, has recorded songs by the likes of Stevie Wonder\, George Harrison\, Jimmy Webb\, and Billy Joel. Not only did his freely interpretive approach pave the way for the idiosyncrasies of rock singing\, but with his character a mix of tough-guy cool and romantic vulnerability\, he became the first true pop idol\, a superstar who through his music established a persona audiences found compelling and true.
