I have forgotten about most of these chestnuts, but damn, a revisit is just what the doctor ordered.

I love Leroy Anderson. I’ve played most of his music and even choreographed Forgotten Dreams. I could play that for two decades before I knew who wrote it. He was, in my opinion, the most lyrical and gifted composer working in TV in his day. He remains an unending source of inspiration.
