Porter vs. Sondheim: Compare and Contrast

At NSSC, Northfield Location: 

Charles Troy, Musical Theater Researcher

Cole Porter was the greatest composer/lyricist to devote himself to Broadway in the first half of the 20th century, and Stephen Sondheim was the greatest of the last half. In this compare-and-contrast exercise, five matched songs from each composer will be evaluated to learn the similarities and differences of these two geniuses. The compare-and-contrast exercise will be preceded by a related program of similar length: "Songs of Sondheim: 4 Witty Songs BY Him and 4 Witty Songs ABOUT Him."
