Metropolitones Suite

Composer: COLE, Ulric
  • Cole composed Metropolitones: Three Compositions for Piano in 1940.1
  • The set was published by Schirmer in 1943.2

Contents:3

  1. Harlem Meander 
  2. Lullaby in the Park 
  3. Man-about-Town 

Note: the title seems to be a portmanteau of “Metropolitan” and “Tones,” as the movement titles indicate an homage to New York City.
