Art of Romance Tony Bennett

Average Customer Review 4.7 out of 5 stars38 customer reviews

Incredibly . . . his best yet!

Hard to believe . . . but come this August, Tony Bennett turns 80. Even harder to conceive . . . Tony's `ageless' arranger/conductor for this "2006 Grammy award-winning album" - Johnny Mandel -- turns 81 this year. Even more incredibly, both men are doing their finest work! Witness this album, an exquisitely beautiful collection of love songs - many of them definitively performed on a collection that actually lives up to its auspicious title -- "The Art of Romance."

Mandel, the acknowledged `dean' of today's orchestral string arrangers, told Nancy Sinatra (around the same time this album was recorded) that his "great regret" as an arranger was never getting to do even ONE album of slow, romantic songs with Frank Sinatra.

Arranged (mostly) by Mandel -- who also conducts the huge orchestra -- "Art of Romance" is surely the best album of its kind, by any MALE singer, in recent decades. Coincidentally (or maybe not) it's the best such recording for Tony since his classic "Movie Song Album" of 40 years ago -- whose "musical director" was . . . Mandel: Johnny conducted nine of the Movie theme songs, including two he'd recently written (songs superbly covered at the time by Frank Sinatra -- "Emily" and "The Shadow of Your Smile").
