redhook1947 Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Vocal Ballads #2: I'll Be Seeing You (1938) - Music by Sammy Fain, lyrics by Irving Kahal. Considered by some to be the most beautiful ballad ever written, this version is sung by the idiosyncratic Billie Holiday (1944). Link to post Share on other sites
redhook1947 Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Vocal Ballads #3: In the Wee Small Hours of the Morning - Music by David Mann, lyrics by Bob Hilliard. Picking one Frank Sinatra ballad is nearly impossible. I tried t stay away from his mega-hits. I think that his voice was at its peak during this time period (mid-fifties) Link to post Share on other sites

redhook1947 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Vocal Ballad #5: All By Myself - Eric Carmen, with generous borrowings from Sergei Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto #2. Most of my ballad selections have been melancholy if not downright depressing. This one is no exception - ah, but the melodies are what sets them apart for me. Link to post Share on other sites
