About This Item
Acclaimed tenor Gregory Kunde marks his 70th birthday by making his first foray outside operatic repertoire with an album inspired by his childhood jukebox favorites. During a career that took him from a small town in Illinois to the international opera stage, Greg has retained his love for the songs which represent the soundtrack of his younger years. With this album he realizes a long-held dream to follow in the footsteps of legendary artists such as Frank Sinatra, Mel Torme, Tony Bennett and Bobby Darin, using his vast operatic experience to create personal and unique interpretations of some of the best American songs ever written alongside an ensemble of brass, percussion and bass. This is Gregory Kunde Then and Now.
