	BBC - h2g2 - Cy Coleman - Musician and Composer
		Cy Coleman (1929-2004) was one of the twentieth century's most versatile composers of popular music.
		Cy Coleman's score for the show is perhaps his most ambitious, written in a mock-operetta style with the rhythms echoing the rhythm of the train — even the overture starts with the sound of a train pulling away from the station.
		However, because Coleman often had a number of projects on the go at once, there are a number of completed Coleman musicals which either remained unproduced or hadn't yet made their way towards Broadway or the West End by the time he died in November 2004.

	Cy Coleman
		Songwriter and pianist Cy Coleman had a "fondness for autumn, my strong feeling that September is when exciting things start to happen".
		Adept at many styles, Coleman's calypso and Latin rhythms were never synthetic, but with a percussive, almost marching beat, brought out the lyrics' intricately sassy wit.
		Coleman's only other work with Dorothy Fields was the romantic comedy Seesaw (1974), another view of love in Manhattan, notable for It's Not Where You Start (It's Where You Finish).
