In Her Latest Album Melissa Errico Celebrates Sondheim And New York City

“It’s my most swinging, big band kind of album, with horns and strings and great jazz drumming,” says Errico who is currently performing songs from the album along with other great classics at Birdland Jazz in a concert called “A Manhattan Valentine.” She also has another “Sondheim In The City” concert engagement at 54 Below May 7th through May 9th which will celebrate her special vinyl album release. “Someone compared the record to Ella Fitzgerald’s American Songbook albums. And while I wouldn’t dream of putting myself at that height, I did think it was the right kind of aspiration.”
