vocalsAbout
Linda Porter, scion of a wealthy and distinguished Virginia family, was the wife of American composer and songwriter Cole Porter for 34 years, leading a sophisticated, luxurious, but also difficult life as an elegant salon lioness and muse at the side of a homosexual man. Songs penned by Cole Porter such as " In the Still of the Night," "Night and Day," "So in Love," " You Do Something for Me," "Let's Be Buddies," "Riding High" and many more can be heard. Thus, the unique lyrics and music of this important figure in jazz history come to life for one evening.
