A propos de cet article

Cole Porter (1891?1964) remains one of America?s most popular composer-songwriters, known for the many urbane, witty, romantic songs he wrote for stage musicals and Hollywood films. Porter was unique among his contemporaries for writing both the music and lyrics for his compositions. To this day, several of his numbers?"Night and Day," "I?ve Got You Under My Skin," "You?re the Top," and "I Get a Kick Out of You," to name a few?endure as standards.
