“April in Paris” was written in 1932 by Vernon Duke (music) and Yip Harburg (lyrics) for the Broadway musical Walk a Little Faster. Its romantic imagery quickly made it a standard, later recorded by Frank Sinatra, Sarah Vaughan, Ella Fitzgerald, and immortalized by Count Basie’s swinging big band version. Here, Jason Paul performs “April in Paris” with acoustic guitar and voice, offering a stripped-down interpretation of this beloved classic. 👉 Q: Paris or New York in April?
