Frank Sinatra, Jr
No Flash Photography. No audio or video recording.
Born in New Jersey in 1944 to a show business family, Frank Wayne Sinatra was never actually a junior. But from the beginning of his life, everyone around found it convenient to call him Frank, Jr. While he was still in diapers, his father's burgeoning movie career forced the young family to resettle in California.
An aborted period in college to seek a degree in piano and music composition gave way to what he considered a more appropriate direction for his endeavors. It was a six-year internship in the performing of popular songs. This began with his joining the vocal staff of the Tommy Dorsey orchestra in 1963. Under the stewardship of Sam Donahue, noted jazz musician and teacher, the vocal shaping of studio singers Clark Yocum and Ralph Brewster, plus the tutoring of trumpet great Charly Shavers, he received his most important musical education.
By the late 1960's, Frank's fledgling career was branching out into musical and dramatic television, as well as movies and recording. With changing tastes in the 70’s, demand for his style of music began to decline resulting in fewer appearances. So during the 80’s, Frank decided to concentrate on the "message" in lyrics, the "imagination" in melody, and the "alchemy" of the orchestra. With the emergence of "The Great American Song Book" in the 90’s he was delighted to learn that this philosophy was beginning to take hold.
Today, he enjoys regular appearances in many countries, on the stages of casino show rooms, musical theatres and the halls of the world's greatest symphony orchestras. He has even been "cartoonized" in the animated TV series, Family Guy.
Frank and his staff of musicians, who for many years played with Sinatra, are now touring the world with the great music of his father’s, performing “Sinatra Sings Sinatra." Audiences on four continents who have attended these performances have come away delighted to have heard the music of Sinatra performed by the greatest living authority on Sinatra songs, who is also the one vocalist most qualified to sing them.
