Sarah Vaughan at the ±«Óãtv
Craig Charles leads us through some of Sarah Vaughan's best-known tracks recorded for the ±«Óãtv, featuring her sassy interpretations of classic songs, including Send in the Clowns.
The singer Jack Jones once said 'there is no greater tribute in the music business than an affectionate nickname'. Known as Sassy, Sarah Vaughan forged a career across five decades, making a reputation in New York clubs, then combining a highly successful recording career with her outstanding work as a live performer.
Craig Charles leads us through some of her best-known tracks recorded for the ±«Óãtv on flagship programmes, including Jazz Scene and Music from Montreux to light entertainment staples, appearing with Jack Jones and Cleo Laine.
Once described as ‘the ageless voice of modern jazz', Sarah Vaughan’s sassy interpretations of classic songs, from chart hits like Send in the Clowns to excerpts from South Pacific, will thrill anyone with a love for her music.
