Un sentido homenaje a la historia del jazz: Curtis Stigers imprime su sello inconfundible a los clásicos de Sinatra
"Fly Me To The Moon – Curtis Stigers with the Danish Radio Big Band" was conceived as a tribute to the legendary Las Vegas concerts of Frank Sinatra and the Count Basie Orchestra. The production brings together the American singer, songwriter, and saxophonist Curtis Stigers and the acclaimed Danish Radio Big Band under the direction of Dennis Mackrel. At its core is a contemporary celebration of the repertoire of the Great American Songbook from the 1950s and 1960s.
The concert film deliberately evokes the atmosphere of Sinatra at the Sands, the landmark encounter between big-band jazz and classic entertainment that remains influential to this day. Recorded at the concert hall of the Danish Broadcasting Corporation, the production combines historical reference with fresh interpretation. Rather than simply imitating Sinatra, Stigers brings his own musical personality to these beloved standards. The film thus serves both as a tribute to jazz history and as a vivid demonstration of the enduring relevance of this musical tradition.
