LTV Studio’s Hamptons Summer Songbook Series will present Sal Viviano in “Perfectly Frank: A Century of Sinatra” on Saturday, July 20, at 7:30 p.m.
While defining the musical style of whatʼs been called “The Greatest Generation,” Frank Sinatra individually influenced American popular music and culture with his enduring signature sound, his definitive phrasing, and his extraordinary musicality; all of which remain immediately identifiable today.
“Perfectly Frank” is a fully arranged, multimedia celebration of the Sinatra songbook, and of the life and musical legacy of this American icon over the past century plus, since his birth in Hoboken, N.J. in 1915. Singing the tunes made famous by Sinatra, while also offering a compellingly personal, intimate and humorous commentary, is Sal Viviano, a veteran Broadway star, recording artist and concert headliner who also worked with and recorded for many of the songwriters whose songs Sinatra popularized.
In one hit song after another, Viviano pays tribute to the legendary style and romantic musical gifts that “Ol’ Blue Eyes” gave to all, featuring all of the authentically vintage arrangements. It’s sure to be an evening to remember.
Tickets are $50 in advance ($55 at the door) with VIP café seating available for $80 at ltveh.org. LTV Studios is at 75 Industrial Road in Wainscott.
