Andre Previn
'An 80th Birthday Celebration’
RCA Red Seal
Andre Previn fetes his 80th birthday, which fell on April 6, with a retrospective of his work spanning over half a century.
His career took off when he played the piano for a party hosted by Frank Sinatra when he was just a teen, and went on to become a widely loved composer, conductor and pianist.
This comprehensive album paints a vivid portrait of the prolific artist, featuring everything from jazz to the classical orchestra repertoire. Tracks include ``Bye Bye Blackbird,’’ ``Concerto for Guitar and Orchestra’’ with the London Symphony Orchestra and ``Vocalise’’ with cellist Yo Yo Ma.
