Composer of the Week: Cole Porter

on BBC Radio 3

5: Out of This World. Paul Guinery charts the composer's final creative years with a look at Porter's scores in the 1950s: three Broadway shows, including the effervescent
Can-Can, and a productive trip to the west coast for a Hollywood classic - High Society. The original recordings from these years prove that Porter's talent for writing beautifully crafted songs had not deserted him.
