		Hart II is the nephew of Lorenz Hart, who, with Richard Rodgers, wrote lyrics to so many landmark '20s,' 30s, and '40s musicals.
		The problem, Hart II says, is that there was a profound difference between the will that his uncle made in 1929 and the one he drafted shortly before his death in 1943.
		Hart II is also happy with Mary Rodgers, whom he says he loves, and he's glad that the acrimony felt by the previous generation of Rodgers and Harts no longer exists.

		As songs such as "Blue Moon" and "Lover" evidence, Hart was perfectly capable of writing a traditional love song; likewise, in "My Heart Stood Still" and "With a Song in My Heart" he presents the exhilaration of a love that is freshly, ecstatically, joyously experienced.
		Moreover, Hart's most psychologically profound love songs prove to be those in which the speaker laments his or her disappointment.
		When Joey and Vera sing of their sexual bliss in the apartment that she has furnished for him ("our little den of iniquity"), they not only challenge the moral standards that the Broadway musical was designed to inculcate, but implicate audience members in their satire of society's hypocrisy.

		Then, there are the partisans of Rodgers' work with lyricist Lorenz Hart, a partnership that yielded songs noted more for their emotional content than for psychological depth.
		Hart's songs, like most Broadway music written in the first half of the 20th century, especially, were meant to serve plot functions, exploring an emotion or commenting on the show's actions.
		Hart was never able to find a lover and many of the lyrics of his songs deal with unrequited love or with romantic fantasy figures.

		Larry was unshaven -- according to Rodgers, Hart invariably looked like he needed a shave every five minutes after he'd had one -- and wearing a bathrobe over an evening shirt and trousers, with carpet slippers on his feet.
		He was already talking -- and doubtless puffing a cigar and rubbing his hands together as he invariably did -- as his visitors climbed the steps, and kept going non-stop as he took them back to the overstuffed library, where there was a piano.
