Notes
Freda shows off her jazz and torch song chops on her new CD 'Turquoise', backed by a unique string quintet led by Tom Ohmsen. Featured songs include several from the Gershwin catalog, plus tunes from Johnny Mercer, Rogers & Hammerstein, Gus Kahn, Johnny Mandel, Billy Rose, and Harold Arlen, to name just a few. From ballads to swing, Freda and her band offer new interpretations of the golden era of the American Songbook.
