Swing Softly

A mid-century masterpiece of rhythmic elegance. Mathis trades his usual slow-burn ballads for upbeat, brassy swing and sophisticated orchestral charm.

It's Johnny Mathis with a little more pep in his step and a full brass section behind him.

A sophisticated and buoyant celebration of romance that feels both expensive and effortless.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The nimble vocal runs on 'It’s De-Lovely' where Mathis matches the brass section's agility.
The breathless, high-speed delivery of 'Get Me to the Church on Time' that showcases his technical control.
The lush, sweeping string introduction to 'Like Someone in Love' that melts into a tender vocal entry.
