# Event Details

- **Event Name**: The humorous side of the Great American Songbook at Holiday Park
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 19 Nov, 2025 at 01:00 pm – Wed, 19 Nov, 2025 at 02:00 pm
- **Event Description**: The wonderful, sophisticated songs in the Songbook are mostly about love, but many are tinged with wit and sarcasm.  The main providers of humor in their tunes were Ira Gerswhin (with brother George) and Cole Porter.  Ira famously wrote the clever wordplay in “Let’s Call the Whole thing Off” (You Say Neither and I Say Neither). Cole Porter was particularly adept at pairing witty, cutting lyrics with sophisticated melodies, as in the song “Let’s Do It” (Birds Do It, Bees Do It).  

There are many other examples of songs by other writers, such as Makin’ Whoopee, and If I Only Had a Brain.  Please join Charlene and I as we talk about the origins of a particular song, and then perform it for you.  We’re going to have fun with this one!
