December 24 - Harry Warren (The Musical Birthday Series)

Harry Warren (24 December 1893 – 22 September 1981) was an American composer and lyricist, many of whose songs have become standards.

Standards

Behind those singing-dancing throngs

   In films by Busby Berkeley,

It’s often Harry Warren’s songs

   Choreographed so quirkily.

Exactly where his music belongs,

  Effervescing perkily.
