Life In A Glasshouse Lyrics
Porter, prominent Broadway composer of the 20th-century, was an inventive and witty lyricist, and an ingenious songwriter who produced sophisticated songs of American music, popular to this day. His unforgettable lovely songs linger on, like "Ev'ry Time We Say Goodbye," "In the Still of the Night," "Begin the Beguine," "Kiss Me Kate," "I Love Paris," and many more.
Early Life of Porter in Law Training
American composer and lyricist Cole Albert Porter (1891-1964) was born rich in his family's large farm in Peru, Indiana. Unlike other known musicians, he composed for pleasure rather than necessity. His grandfather who made a fortune in lumber saw to it that his grandson got a quality education in law. He was educated at Worcester Academy, Yale University and Harvard Law School.
Cole Porter's Musical Talent
Porter showed his musical talent and interest when he was young, in fact, he started writing songs at the age of ten, and produced on Broadway by the time he was 21. However, his formal studies in music only began in 1915 when he started at Harvard School of Music and with Vincent d'Indy in Paris, in 1919. Before this, he had a period at law school and the French Foreign Legion.
