He is also the most important Italian-American composer of popular song of the 20th century.

This past Thursday was a magical night of music - it’s just what we do here !

The intimate venue seated around 45 people who listened intently to the legacy of Mr. Warren unfurl before them in story & song…highlighting Mr. Warren’s career from Tin Pan Alley to Hollywood to Broadway & back again.

Because of Harry Warren’s Italian American heritage, hosting the event at the on Manhattan’s Upper East Side only perfected an already amazing evening!!
