About
Celebrate three of the best-loved songwriters in the American Songbook! Arguably the most prolific, composer Henry Mancini wrote the soundtrack for multiple generations of movie lovers, with instantly recognizable songs like Moon River, The Days of Wine and Roses, and many more. Johnny Mandel not only wrote lyrics for some of Mancini’s classics but also wrote some classics himself, including Close Enough for Love and Emily. And Johnny Mercer, the Savannah Georgia native who was a favorite of Frank Sinatra, penned such classics as Come Rain or Come Shine, One for My Baby, and Summer Wind.
