Successful American jazz and light music of the 20th century, composed primarily from Broadway musicals, musical theater and Hollywood films; light but delightful.
Irene Kitchings, Hugh Martin, Ray Evans. Three composers whose names are less well known, because they did not make a major contribution to the Great American Songbook. But, the songs they did contribute have become widely played Standards.
