Peggy Lee, discovered by Benny Goodman in 1940 and immediately engaged in his big band, was mainly influenced by Lady Day. This explains her musical importance as a vocalist for a period of almost fifty years in the history of the American jazz singing. Paola Arnesano, had the chance to listen to Peggy Lee even before Billie Holiday. So - as Michela Lombardi did with her adored Irene Kral - Paola thought about paying Peggy Lee a tribute with this beautiful record after seven years from her death. Because of her dedication to that extraordinary white singer - still unknown to the majority of people - I have decided to present it in the Revelation Series of my Philology. Paola confirms her talent as a refined and sensitive interpreter, who is easy and relaxed, never extravagant: she is herself a Revelation!
