How Do You Keep The Music Playing? is a profoundly elegant, deeply cinematic, and masterfully tailored vocal jazz and traditional pop masterpiece by the legendary American ballad icon Johnny Mathis, released in 1993 by Columbia Records. Standing as a magnificent, high-fidelity conceptual tribute dedicated entirely to the brilliant, Oscar-winning songwriting songbook of French composer Michel Legrand and lyricists Alan and Marilyn Bergman, this studio document captures Mathis completely immersing his signature velvet-toned vibrato into sweeping, ultra-romantic arrangements. Spanning nearly 47 minutes across 11 tracks, the album showcases Mathis delivering a masterclass in emotional depth and structural grace, navigating complex modal melodies with effortless maturity. The beautifully paced tracklist features exquisite, definitive interpretations of cinematic masterpieces including The Windmills Of Your Mind, the brooding romance of What Are You Doing The Rest Of Your Life, and the heartbreakingly tender On My Way To You. Bookended by a stunning introductory vignette and a definitive full-length reading of the iconic title track How Do You Keep The Music Playing, this rare archival document stands as an absolute mandatory cornerstone and a prized collector's treasure for global purists of modern traditional pop vocal history, sophisticated orchestral soul, and the timeless Legrand songbook heritage.
