Cole Porter, best known perhaps as the composer/lyricist for the 1949 smash Broadway show, "Kiss Me Kate", wrote many other great songs in the decades before. Join Stephen on this tour of the earlier show tunes of the unique and irrepressible Cole Porter. Stephen will invite you to “name that tune” after playing a few bars on the keyboard!
