Students from the Frank Sinatra School of the Arts High School in Astoria and the arts education nonprofit Exploring the Arts (ETA) are teaming up to honor the memory of their founder, the legendary crooner and Astoria native Tony Bennett, who died in July at age 96. In tribute to Bennett and the American Songbook he so loved, the students will perform classics including “I Left My Heart in San Francisco,” “The Lady is a Tramp” and “The GoodLife,” among many others on Friday, Dec. 1, in the school’s concert hall that was named after him. An opening video tribute created by student film majors will look back on Bennett's life and impact on the Frank Sinatra High School of the Arts community and an art exhibition in the school’s lobby will feature some of Bennett's original artwork alongside student works he inspired.
