Music Of Cole Porter Without Words The
The music of Cole Porter has been loved by generations across the globe. He was one of the rare composers who wrote both melody and lyrics, and as such you often hear his compositions with these two components married together. As an instrumentalist, I have always adored the melodies and the harmonies that Cole Porter wrote. This album is a celebration of some of those melodies – without the words.
Every track has been arranged based on the original structure, progressions and musical intent – with a few alterations to suit the playing style of both Glenn Amer and myself.
Recorded at Underwood Studios in Sydney’s Blue Mountains the audio experience for the listener is meant to be an intimate one, as if you were popping a bottle of champagne and having Glenn and myself in your living room and serenading you with these melodies.
