Description

“Kiss In the Dark” is as famous as “Angel Face” is obscure. This is the major hit of the 1922 Herbert play with music, Orange Blossoms.  The lyrics are by a very young (just beginning) B.G. de Sylva. You will recognize this fellow as the later very famous Buddy de Sylva (1895-1950). DeSlylva (as he came to write it) became a very famous American songwriter, film producer and record executive. He wrote or co-wrote many popular songs and along with Johnny Mercer and Glenn Wallichs, founded Capitol Records. This haunting love song is sung first by Kitty, the leading lady and is then woven all through the score, turning up in scene change music, Entr’Acte music and finales.  Here the key is D major with a range from D♯to the F an octave above.
