Should you need convincing that it’s not only today’s young rock stars who burn up the sky, study the career of Jule Styne and marvel.  Styne played concert music at the age of ten, and in a pop band at thirteen, began to write songs at sixteen, and wrote his first successful tune at the tender age of twenty-one.  His tunes have been heard in more than 150 movies, among them It Happened in Brooklyn, which introduced us to “Time After Time", which was recorded by many, most notably Frank Sinatra and Margaret Whiting.  He contributed music to the Ice Capades of 1942 and 1943, and with Sammy Cahn, wrote Glad to See You, his first full-fledged musical in 1944.
