Today we conclude our annual tour of the summer sky at night in song. After our shows celebrating stars and the moon, we listen today to songs about the night. This was a very popular theme with songwriters, particularly when coupled with romance, and many songs resulted over the years. We listen today to a selection of songs on this topic, brought to us by some wonderful singers and musicians bringing us their interpretations of songs celebrating the sky at night. Enjoy our visit to the night sky in this classic music!
