Description
An audio recording of "Stella by Starlight," composed by Victor Young (1900-1956) and performed by the John Whitney Trio live on-air on WUCF-FM on January 4, 2000. John Whitney served as director of both orchestral studies and the University of Central Florida Jazz Lab band during his 20 years with the university. Whitney also led the UCF Jazz Lab band in invited performances at Montreux Jazz Festival in Switzerland and North Sea Jazz Festival in Holland. He established himself as a conductor, performer, composer, arranger, and teacher in both classical and jazz arenas, founding and directing the Southern Tier Symphony in Allegany, New York, in 2003, until his death in 2014. "Stella by Starlight" is a popular jazz standard first featured in the 1944 film, The Uninvited. It has since been recorded by numerous artists, including Frank Sinatra (1915-1998), Charlie Parker (1920-1955), Nat King Cole (1919-1965), Miles Davis (1926-1991), Larry Coryell (b. 1943), Ella Fitzgerald (1917-1996), and Ray Charles (1930-2004).
