Playbill.com:

("Beautiful City") and Rent ("Seasons of Love"). "
"If there was a Mount Rushmore for Broadway scores, "West Side Story" would be front and center. It snaps, it crackles it pops! It surges with a roar, its energy and sheer life undiminished by the years" - NYPost reviewer Elisabeth Vincentelli

Here's my question, and don't shoot me:

What do "Alto's Lament" and "Cornet Man" have to do with the occasion? Just seem to be weird choices since everyone else did songs that seem to match the mood.

Well, as for "Coronet Man," the coronet is a jazz instrument, and jazz originated in New Orleans. I thought the song was totally appropriate.

Alto's Lament really had nothing to do with the night but was one of the funniest numbers....and Bill Irwins sketch had nothing to do with anything either.

It was a benefit; did the songs really need to mean something? If the audience was entertained then the performers did their job.
