Review by Mustafa Gulseren

Summertime In Venice Fascination by Dick Jacobs & His Chorus & Orchestra is a delightful album that transports listeners to the romantic and picturesque canals of Venice. The album features a collection of classic Italian songs and American standards, all infused with the lush and sweeping arrangements of Jacobs and his talented ensemble.

The album opens with the title track, "Summertime In Venice," a breezy tune that sets the mood for the rest of the album. Jacobs' arrangements are rich and full, with soaring strings and a chorus that adds depth and texture to the music. The vocals are smooth and polished, with just the right amount of emotion to convey the romantic themes of the songs.

Other standout tracks on the album include "Arrivederci Roma," "Volare," and "Mambo Italiano," all of which are given fresh and vibrant interpretations by Jacobs and his orchestra. The album also includes a number of classic American standards, such as "Blue Moon" and "I'm In The Mood For Love," which are given a new twist with the addition of Italian lyrics.
