 Broadway: The American Musical . Stars Over Broadway . Alan Jay Lerner | PBS
Through a career that spanned three decades, lyricist/librettist Alan Jay Lerner and his partner, composer Frederick Loewe, became virtually synonymous with the blockbuster Broadway musical.

In the 1970s, after Loewe fell ill, Lerner continued writing with composers including Andre Previn and Charles Strouse, but such subsequent musicals as "Coco" and "Dance a Little Closer" never quite caught on with critics and playgoers.

I take issue with the point that Bill George makes that some of the cuts are a little overwhelmed by the instruments.
