Bart Howard (b. Howard Joseph Gustafson June 1, 1915, Burlington, Iowa — d. February 21, 2004, Carmel, New York)
”Fly Me to the Moon” is a pop standard song written in 1954 by Bart Howard. When introduced by Felicia Sanders on the cabaret circuit, it was originally titled „In Other Words”. The song became popularly called „Fly Me to the Moon” from its first line, but it took a few years for the publishers to change the title officially.
Composer and pianist Bart Howard, whose „Fly Me To the Moon (In Other Words)” was sent rocketing onto the charts by Peggy Lee and Frank Sinatra, died of complications of a stroke on February 23, 2004. He was 88 years old.
