Tone Poems Of Color

Cover Designed by Saul Bass

Capitol Records W735

1956

From Billboard - August 25, 1956: Music to match each color hue has been composed by Victor Young, Gordon Jenkins, Billy May, Jeff Alexander, Alec Wilder, Nelson Riddle, Elmer Bernstein and Andre Previn. Under the baton of Sinatra, a symphony ork. interprets these. Interesting idea, well-executed, counts on the name pull of Sinatra and the eight composers. Fine display possibilities offered by the cover.
