“The Wonderful Wizard of Song” is a collaboration of The Harold Arlen Foundation and Matt Davenport Productions. Harold Arlen’s son, Sam Arlen (president of the Harold Arlen Foundation), is a consultant for the production. Arlen not only provides first hand stories and insight to the writing of this production, but also has provided personal mementos, family photographs and Harold’s own home movies of the making of the “Wizard of Oz.”
Arlen’s songs include “Stormy Weather” and “Somewhere over the Rainbow.”
