Seasons of a Life was the last album by American vocalist Lena Horne.
That same year, she recorded a full-length album, entitled Soul, which has yet to be released.
Pianist Herbie Hancock accompanies Horne on "Chelsea Bridge" and "Willow Weep for Me".
Tracks 2, 5, & 6: Recorded in 1996 and later used for Simon Rattle's Classic Ellington album.
For this release, Jones appears to have used the pre-recorded versions without the large symphony, thus rendering these tracks small-group performances.
