Our Homeschool Resource: Tony Bennett is who we will be studying this week. I want to introduce Charlie to his music. Although I am sure Charlie has heard some of Tony Bennett’s music and not even knew who he was listening to. Which happens a lot of times.
Life: Tony Bennett
LIFE: Tony Bennett 1926-2023 The Man. The Voice. The Life. This beautifully illustrated and movingly told edition pays tribute to one of the great American singers and entertainers of the 20th–and well into the 21st Century. Experience Antonio Benedetto’s early days through his time with the Rat Pack, and to the remarkable duets Bennett sang with so many performers: Frank Sinatra, Paul McCartney, Lady Gaga, Stevie Wonder, Bono and other greats.

Learn about imperishable songs like Because of You and I Left My Heart in San Francisco. Plus: His life as a painter.
