  • Description

    Vintage and traditonal songs sung by Julie Andrews. Plus rare soundtrack recordings from her memorable appearance on the Dinah Shore Chevy Show.

    Most of the tracks for this superb album come from 1957 - original studio recordings, comprising favourite and traditional old songs from Britain and Ireland. Two wonderful bonus tracks, however, are taken directly from television soundtrack recordings - and never before released in any form.

    These fourteen tracks demonstrate just how the young Julie Andrews took New York's theatre-goers by storm with her Broadway appearances in 'The Boy Friend' and 'My Fair Lady'. Backed by superb orchestrations from the Irwin Kostal orchestra, the twenty-one year old star is in sublime form, with pitch-perfect voice, most sensitive phrasing and humour in this scintillating programme of much loved songs from Britain and Ireland. They are all jewels. In addition, there are two lovely recordings taken from Julie's appearance on Dinah Shore's Chevy Show in 1958. Julie sings "I Could Have Danced All Night" and duets with Dinah on "Whispering Hope".

    Due to her seminal films such as 'The Sound Of Music' and 'Mary Poppins,' Julie Andrews still has the most enormous following all around the world. This fine CD will be a must-have addition to their collections.
