The Questions, co-produced by Kurt Elling and Branford Marsalis, presents Elling's interpretations of songs written by some of music's most influential composers, including Bob Dylan ('A Hard Rain s A-Gonna Fall'), Leonard Bernstein ('Lonely Town'), Rodgers & Hammerstein ('I Have Dreamed' from The King and I), plus a powerful revisit of Paul Simon's 'American Tune.' There are also several compelling new arrangements of what were originally instrumental jazz compositions which feature Elling's own new lyrics.
