A Salute to Sinatra

Don't miss Ned Fasullo & The Fabulous Big Band Orchestra's celebration of the one, the only Frank Sinatra at Baton Rouge Magnet this month. Performing two sets of his biggest and boldest hits, the Fasullo and his band will also provide a short history of each song, drawing audiences through the life of one of America's most iconic figures of pop culture. The show will benefit the Baton Rouge High School Foundation, which encourages philanthropy and fellowship of alumni, families of students, faculty and the community.

“Call him a saloon singer, an entertainer or an icon, Frank Sinatra encompassed the true nature of the American dream. Rising from poverty to the upper echelon of entertainment, Sinatra set the bar for the Great American Songbook, working with all of the best arrangers, composers, musicians and fellow entertainers to create one of the largest and most played catalogs of popular American standards ever. This show is a tribute to the sights and sounds and emotions of the music from the man known as Ole’ Blue Eyes and the Chairman of the Board. We will be performing with a full 16 piece big band orchestra made up of the finest musicians Louisiana has ever seen, performing a who’s who of Sinatra’s greatest hits. This is a show not to miss supporting a wonderful organization.”
