Recorded on February 14, 1955, at Fine Sound Studios in New York City it was released in 1958.

The album stands as a testament to her enduring talent and resilience in the face of personal and professional challenges. The choice of songs includes a mix of standards and jazz classics that Holiday had a special affinity for this work. Each song’s lyrics and mood align with the overarching themes of longing, heartbreak.

Ermitage Records is one of the longest-running independent record labels specializing in classical and jazz music. Born in the mid-eighties with the publication of some vinyl records by Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli, it later released CDs of the world’s leading opera, symphonic and chamber artists.

It has always stood out for the quality of its recordings, the careful selection of its repertoire and the care of its editions. Thanks to its constant commitment to the enhancement and publication of musical heritage, the label has become an important point of reference for collectors and music enthusiasts from all over the world.

Along with names such as *Rubinstein*, *Callas*, *Pollini*, *Benedetti Michelangeli* and *Segovia*, over the years the label’s production - distributed in Europe, Japan and the USA - has expanded to artists such as Lucio Dalla, Eugenio Finardi or Stefano Bollani.

In addition to CD titles, Ermitage Records offers for some years reissues in vinyl 180 grams of jazz classics (with names such as John Coltrane, Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins, Chet Baker), classical music (Italian Quartet, I Musici and others) and of Italian signwriting (Endrigo, Gaber, Jannacci, Tenco) with remarkable success.
