Edit as you see fit, I wasn't sure how much info you needed so I may have gone into too much detaiL. Cole Porter was born in Peru, Indiana on June 9, 1891. His weaithy grandfather wanted him to become a lawyer, but his mother had other ideas. She encouraged his budding musical genius by enrolling him in violin and piano lessons at an early age. He was ten when he wrote his first composition, "The Song of the Birds". In 1905 Cole entered Worcester Academy in Massachusetts. He graduated as the valedictorian in 1909, after which he attended Yale University. Cole took an active part in the musical life of the college, writing the score to many student shows and singing in the Glee Ciub and the Whiffenpoofs. His football songs, "Bull Dog" and "Bingo Eli Yale" are still sung at Yale. His first Broadway show. "See America First" (1916), was poorly received, and Cole exiled himselfto Europe. During W-i, he worked with the Dureya Relief Organization in France. He also lead a glamourous and charmed life as a member of the Lost Generation, mixing with Europe's high society, as well as the expatriate group of American artists who made Europe their home between the wars. In 1919 Porter married the legendary society beauty Linda Lee Thomas. They iived in Paris. Linda encouraged Cole's musical talents, and throughout the 1920s he contributed songs to various shows and revues. In 1928. at the urging of Irving Berlin, he wrote the full score to the show "Paris", which became Porter's first big Broadway hit, and gave us such songs as "Let's Do It' and "Let's Misbehave". The 1930s were Porter's most prolific decade. Splitting his time between New York and Hollywood, he wrote a string of sparkling hits, among them "Night and Day", "You're the Top", "Begin the Beguine". "Don't Fence Me In", and "Love for Sale". Some of his more familiar scores from this decade include "Anything Goes", "Gay Divorce", "Born to Dance" and" Jubilee".

  • Cole Porter: the Social Significance of Selected Love Lyrics of the 1930S
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Unisa Institutional Repository Cole Porter: the social significance of selected love lyrics of the 1930s by MARILYN JUNE HOLLOWAY submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the subject of ENGLISH at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA SUPERVISOR: PROFESSOR IA RABINOWITZ November 2010 DECLARATION i SUMMARY This dissertation examines selected love lyrics composed during the 1930s by Cole Porter, whose witty and urbane music epitomized the Golden era of American light music. These lyrics present an interesting paradox – a man who longed for his music to be accepted by the American public, yet remained indifferent to the social mores of the time. Porter offered trenchant social commentary aimed at a society restricted by social taboos and cultural conventions. The argument develops systematically through a chronological and contextual study of the influences of people and events on a man and his music. The prosodic intonation and imagistic texture of the lyrics demonstrate an intimate correlation between personality and composition which, in turn, is supported by the biographical content. KEY WORDS: Broadway, Cole Porter, early Hollywood musicals, gays and musicals, innuendo, musical comedy, social taboos, song lyrics, Tin Pan Alley, 1930 film censorship ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I should like to thank Professor Ivan Rabinowitz, my supervisor, who has been both my mentor and an unfailing source of encouragement; Dawie Malan who was so patient in sourcing material from libraries around the world with remarkable fortitude and good humour; Dr Robin Lee who suggested the title of my dissertation; Dr Elspa Hovgaard who provided academic and helpful comment; my husband, Henry Holloway, a musicologist of world renown, who had to share me with another man for three years; and the man himself, Cole Porter, whose lyrics have thrilled, and will continue to thrill, music lovers with their sophistication and wit.

  • Cole Albert Porter (June 9, 1891 October 15, 1964) Was An
    Cole Albert Porter (June 9, 1891 October 15, 1964) was an American composer and songwriter. Born to a wealthy family in Indiana, he defied the wishes of his dom ineering grandfather and took up music as a profession. Classically trained, he was drawn towards musical theatre. After a slow start, he began to achieve succe ss in the 1920s, and by the 1930s he was one of the major songwriters for the Br oadway musical stage. Unlike many successful Broadway composers, Porter wrote th e lyrics as well as the music for his songs. After a serious horseback riding accident in 1937, Porter was left disabled and in constant pain, but he continued to work. His shows of the early 1940s did not contain the lasting hits of his best work of the 1920s and 30s, but in 1948 he made a triumphant comeback with his most successful musical, Kiss Me, Kate. It w on the first Tony Award for Best Musical. Porter's other musicals include Fifty Million Frenchmen, DuBarry Was a Lady, Any thing Goes, Can-Can and Silk Stockings. His numerous hit songs include "Night an d Day","Begin the Beguine", "I Get a Kick Out of You", "Well, Did You Evah!", "I 've Got You Under My Skin", "My Heart Belongs to Daddy" and "You're the Top". He also composed scores for films from the 1930s to the 1950s, including Born to D ance (1936), which featured the song "You'd Be So Easy to Love", Rosalie (1937), which featured "In the Still of the Night"; High Society (1956), which included "True Love"; and Les Girls (1957).

  • Father Riggs of Yale by Stephen Schmalhofer
    Dispatch March 24, 2021 05:11 pm Father Riggs of Yale by Stephen Schmalhofer We open in Venice. On an Italian holiday in 1926, early on in his Broadway career, Richard Rodgers bumped into Noël Coward. Together they strolled the Lido before ducking into a friend’s beach cabana, where Coward introduced Rodgers for the first time to “a slight, delicate-featured man with soft saucer eyes.” Cole Porter grinned up at the visitors and insisted that both men join him for dinner that evening at a little place he was renting. Porter sent one of his gondoliers to pick up Rodgers. At his destination, liveried footmen helped him out of the boat. He gazed in wonder up the grand staircase of Porter’s “little place,” the three-story Ca’ Rezzonico, where Robert Browning died and John Singer Sargent once kept a studio. This was not the only dramatic understatement from Porter that day. In the music room after dinner, their host urged Rodgers and Coward to play some of their songs. Afterwards Porter took his turn. “As soon as he touched the keyboard to play ‘a few of my little things,’ I became aware that here was not merely a talented dilettante, but a genuinely gifted theatre composer and lyricist,” recalled Rodgers in his autobiography, Musical Stages. “Songs like ‘Let’s Do It,’ ‘Let’s Misbehave,’ and ‘Two Babes in the Wood,’ which I heard that night for the first time, fairly cried out to be heard from the stage.” Rodgers wondered aloud what Porter was doing wasting his talent and time in a life of Venetian indolence.

Es war eine „patriotic comic opera“ im Stile von Gilbert and Sullivan und ein Flop. Die Handlung ist dumm, die Musik hinterlässt keinen Eindruck und taugt höchstens für eine Studentenaufführung, schrieb der New York Herald. Der 25-jährige Cole Porter hatte am Anfang seiner Karriere also keinen leichten Stand.

Featuring intricate designs and thematic images, the covers enhanced eye appeal and attracted interest. The music was arranged primarily for piano and included lyrics. From about World War I on, many covers included photographs of composers or performing artists, a trend that continued well into the 20th century. The covers helped promote sales of music and contributed to the popularity of individual songs, many of which were composed for Broadway shows and later also for motion picture musicals. Popularity was also heightened, especially during the 1930s and 1940s, by the performance of songs at live concerts and as dance music by orchestras such as those of Duke Ellington, Glenn Miller, Tommy Dorsey, and Benny Goodman. In addition, songs were heard on radio broadcasts, phonograph records, and in films.
