The Standards by SONY MASTERWORKS

We are proud to offer the fantastic The Standards.

With so many available these days, it is good to have a make you can recognise. The The Standards is certainly that and will be a great acquisition.

For this reduced price, the The Standards comes highly respected and is always a regular choice for many people. SONY MASTERWORKS have provided some nice touches and this results in good value.

Celebrating great tunes from the American Songbook, The Standards features song classics sung in English, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese and French, some with new lyrics written by Estefan herself. The album also features collaborations with world class award-winning artists like singer songwriter Laura Pausini, violinist Joshua Bell and saxophonist Dave Koz.

The ambitious project has been "on my back burner for a long time," says Estefan. "I grew up listening to Frank Sinatra, Johnny Mathis, Henry Mancini and great romance recording artists in Cuba. This genre is right up my alley, since music is always a catharsis to me."
