Court's in Session Live from Twin Cities Jazz Festival 2024 | Fly Me to the Moon

Fly Me to the Moon is one of the most recognizable love songs.

Bart Howard originally composed the song under the title “In Other Words” – which later become popular as “Fly Me to the Moon” – in 1954. Later on, Frank Sinatra's 1964 version became closely associated with the NASA’s Apollo missions to the Moon. Fly Me to the Moon was played on Apollo 10, which orbited the moon. It was also played on Apollo 11 before the first moon landing.

Recorded Live and unedited, from the TPT Stage at the 2024 Twin Cities Jazz Festival in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
