	The Sinatra Project »rank: 694 by: Michael Feinstein : : Classic romantic songs of the legendary Frank Sinatra delivered by the Master of the American Songbook himself, Michael Feinstein. 0n this amazing release Feinstein has chosen to reflect the Sinatra sensibility by interpreting the songs in conceptually different styles from Sinatra's own renditions.

Romance on Film/Romance on Broadway »rank: 35404 by: Michael Feinstein : :Cabaret singer turned crooner Michael Feinstein continues to pay tribute to the American popular standard in his two-disc set Romance on Film, Romance on Broadway. The first disc features Feinstein in front of a live audience singing mostly well-worn ballads from classic films (exception: you may not immediately associate Michel LeGrand and Alan and Marilyn Bergman's 'How Do You Keep the Music Playing?' with the 1982 Burt Reynolds-Goldie Hawn vehicle Best Friends). The second disc is a studio recording filled with ...
	Pure Gershwin »rank: 25331 by: Michael Feinstein : :Pure Gershwin was Michael Feinstein's first album, and it remains one of his best. lt may not have the production values of his later Gershwin tributes, Nice Work if You Can Get lt (1996) and Michael & George (1998), but it simply and directly presents Feinstein in his piano-bar days, singing to his own tasteful accompaniments with occasional contributions from bass and drums and a second piano.

Live at the Algonquin »rank: 92261 by: Michael Feinstein : :Before he forged a reputation as the walking, talking encyclopedia of American popular song, Michael Feinstein was a cabaret singer, and this 1987 live recording from New York's Algonquin Hotel captures him in his element. Feinstein performs ballads, list songs, a medley of lra Gershwin songs, and comic songs, all to his own expert piano accompaniment. Some of the best (and least familiar) numbers are those aimed at the knowing audience, including 'You,' a hilarious cut-and-paste job of famous song phrases, ...
	Hopeless Romantics »rank: 41327 by: Michael Feinstein, George Shearing : :These sixteen performances are a perfect pairing of vocalist and pianist. Both Michael Feinstein and George Shearing work well in such a spare setting and they've wisely chosen to focus exclusively on ballads.

Michael Feinstein With the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra »rank: 72778 by: Michael Feinstein, Israel Philharmonic Orchestra : :lf there's a precious tone to Michael Feinstein's interpretations of the American songbook, it probably stems from a fervent dedication to preserving the original context of his material. This is, after all, a musician who spent many of his formative years in personal service to the late lra Gershwin. This collection further underscores that commitment, with the lush sound of the lsrael Philharmonic 0rchestra (augmented by the piano trio of Alan Broadbent, who also provides all but one of the arrangements ...
