Hello all
I agree entirely with Bill H about the absence of need to "cornify" this
piece. Just play it hot !
Start by listening the the famous Paul Whiteman recording of August 1920.
It begins in a rather staid manner and then takes-off and swings like a
dunny door in a hurricane.
All the best
Anton
PS: I've just seen "De-lovely", a bio-pic of Cole Porter, at the Sydney
Film Festival. It's a musical travesty.
