For many years English-born Jenny Evans has been known as a sophisticated swinger in the tradition of Ella Fitzgerald and Anita O'Day. Here she expands her ambition and repertoire for a collection of songs about the moon, in which the music ranges from the 17th century to Sting, from Dvorak and Satie to Glenn Miller and Henry Mancini. A high-concept jazz vocal masterpiece to rank with the best of Cassandra Wilson or Patricia Barber.
