By RJ McKay

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- The Philly POPS present 'Sinatra: A Centennial Celebration' on October 9 through the 11.

Michael Krajewski, music director and conductor of the Philly POPS, gives a preview.

"My intention is to have this program really reflect the life and the body of work of Sinatra. So, we are going to go all the way back to his beginnings as the singer in front of a big band when he started out with the Dorsey Band. And we'll just going to go, you know, all the way through his life, including touching upon his role in the movies, too."

Michael also talked about guest vocalist Michael Andrew:

"I've known Michael Andrew, our guest vocalist, for probably twenty-some years. I've worked with him a lot. He really is an expert on Sinatra music."
