Entries Publication Data Advisory Board Contributors ... World Civilizations The Reader's Companion to American History GERSHWIN, GEORGE , songwriter, pianist, and composer. Although best known as a composer of popular songs, Gershwin (born Jacob Gershvin) also wrote music for orchestra, piano, and the musical theater. After early piano study in his native Brooklyn, he left high school to become a song plugger for Jerome H. Remick and Co., a Tin Pan Alley publishing company. He soon began writing his own songs, and his first full-scale Broadway revue, La La Lucille, opened in May of 1919. Between 1920 and 1924, Gershwin composed five of the George White's Scandals revues. In 1920, Al Jolson's recording of "Swanee," the composer's first hit, established Gershwin as a popular songwriter. Gershwin's interest in both romantic and modern music, along with his skill as a composer in popular genres, contributed to his development of a symphonic jazz style in the 1920s and to his later use of African-American music on the operatic stage. On November 1, 1923, Gershwin accompanied soprano Eva Gauthier in a concert of vocal music that ranged from Purcell to Hindemith and also included some of his own songs. Critics praised his pianistic technique and the sophisticated arrangements of popular songs. In 1924, the premiere of Gershwin's

George Gershwin Komponist, Pianist, Dirigent ab 1910 ab 1914 Sein erster Song "When You Want 'Em You Can't Get 'Em" wird veröffentlicht. Obwohl der Song erfolglos bleibt, werden einige Broadway-Komponisten auf Gershwin aufmerksam und verwenden in den kommenden Jahren mehrere seiner Songs in ihren Stücken. Gershwin nimmt in diesen Jahren weiterhin Unterricht in Klavier und Harmonielehre. Er schreibt seine erste eigene Broadway-Revue "La, La Lucille". Gershwin ist an der Produktion der jährlichen "George White's Scandals" maßgeblich beteiligt. Freundschaft mit Anläßlich der "Scandals" komponiert er die einaktige Oper "Blue Monday", die später in "135th Street" umbenannt wird. Uraufführung des von Paul Whiteman (1890-1969) angeregten Klavierkonzerts mit Jazzorchester "Rhapsody in Blue" in der Carnegie Hall in New York. Gershwin verbindet europäische Kunstmusik mit Elementen des Jazz und wird somit zum Mitbegründer des "symphonic jazz". Vitaler Rhythmus und eingängige Liedmelodien sind Grundelemente seines Schaffens. Mit dem Musical "Lady, Be Good!" gelingt Gershwin sein erster großer Broadway-Erfolg. Das Musical enthält u.a. die Stücke "Fascinating Rhythm" und "Oh, Lady, Be Good!". Wie in diesem Fall, arbeitet er auch später viel mit seinem Bruder Ira Gershwin (1896-1983) als Texter zusammen. Sie werden in den nächsten Jahren zu einem der erfolgreichsten "Song-Writer-Teams" des Broadway.

Gershwin spent the first years of his professional life as a piano player in "Tin Pan Alley," a place where musical songs were pitched to music executives in hopes of selling the rights to them for a modest amount of cash. These songs were later to be introduced to the American public as those sung on the silver screen and on the Vaudeville stage.

Influences on Today's Music (1937 - ) George Gershwin was born Jacob Gershowitz on September 26, 1898 in Brooklyn, New York. The son of immigrant parents, George became one of America's first premier composers and his compositions are still used today as tool of teachers everywhere as examples of the American entrance to the musical world of Stravinsky, Chopin, Beethoven and Mozart. George had two brothers, Arthur and Ira, and one sister, Francis (Frankie). Although George is the most well known of the family, his brother Ira was also a succesful lyricist. In fact, if it weren't for Ira's interest in music, George's parents would not have purchased the family's first piano. Ira was going to study the piano when the instrument was brought into the family home, but it was George who took the immediate interest in it and immediately began to successfully play by ear. His parents invested some piano lessons in him and George began to study seriously at the young age of 12 years. Early Professional Career (1916-1924) George began his professional career in "Tin Pan Alley," a location in New York City where aspiring composers and song writers would bring their scores to a publisher in hopes of selling the tunes for a modest amount of cash. As a "song plugger" for the Jerome Remick Company, George was exposed to thousands of songs, which gave him a better idea for what songs had a successful quality.
