Program Notes
Porter was notable among songwriters for writing both lyrics and music. His texts were full of clever double entendres, and his compositions reflected his thorough musical training. Stephen Bulla’s medley of Porter tunes includes It’s De-Lovely, originally sung by Ethel Merman and Bob Hope in the 1936 show Red, Hot and Blue, In the Still of the Night from the 1937 movie Rosalie, Goodbye, Little Dream, Goodbye from O Mistress Mine, and You’re The Top from the 1934 musical Anything Goes.
