Vaughan with Voices
# Vaughan with Voices

Vaughan with Voices is a 1964 studio album by Sarah Vaughan, arranged by Robert Farnon.

Recorded in Copenhagen, Denmark, produced by Quincy Jones, and accompanied by the Svend-Saaby Danish Choir, this was Vaughan's only album arranged by Robert Farnon, and one of a number of albums she made with Jones, who later discussed the project with jazz critic and composer Leonard Feather.

   Farnon enveloped her with the velvet of affection and respect. She responded in kind; the instrumentalists and choir were also caught up in this reciprocal flow of love—the love of musician for a challenge that will enable him to utilize all the skills he has, to the maximum extent.

In his review of Mercury's 1968 re-release of the album for the Los Angeles Times, Leonard Feather called the LP "one of her best ever" as well as "the most joyous fusion of solo voice and vocal group ever committed to tape."

Ron Wynn of AllMusic gave the album three stars and called it a "Wonderful release."
