“Fly Me to the Moon”, originally titled “In Other Words”, is a timeless classic that has captured the hearts of many music lovers. The song was written in 1954 by the talented American composer Bart Howard. The first recording of the song was made in the same year by Kaye Ballard. However, it was Frank Sinatra’s 1964 version that became closely associated with the Apollo missions to the Moon. Sinatra’s rendition elevated the song to new heights and it has since been covered by numerous artists including Tony Bennett, Ella Fitzgerald, Diana Krall, and Astrud Gilberto.
Now, imagine this beautiful melody being played on a mandolin and guitar. The intricate plucking of the mandolin strings combined with the rich strumming of the guitar would certainly do justice to this iconic tune. Whether you’re a seasoned musician or a beginner, playing “Fly Me to the Moon” on these instruments would be a delightful experience. Enjoy your musical journey!
