Frank Sinatra Conducts Tone Poems of Color is a 1956 album of tone poems composed by eight notable mid-20th century Hollywood arrangers, with each composition inspired by the poetry of Norman Sickel.
As well as being conducted by Sinatra this album marked the first musical collaboration between Sinatra and Gordon Jenkins.
