Baritone Jonathan Estabrooks is trying on KickStarter to raise $40,000 to produce a classical/crossover album with full orchestra. “As I began planning this project, I found myself drawn not to one particular musical genre, but to the great lyricists and songwriters of our time. The list soon included greats such as Stevie Wonder, John Denver, Carlos Gardel, Neil Diamond, Willy Nelson, Sondheim and more and the work of great performers like Frank Sinatra, Mario Lanza, and Dean Martin,” he writes.
I learned of the project thanks to Barihunks.
