He composed over 700 pop songs including "I Got Rhythm," "The Man I Love," "They Can't Take That Away From Me," and "Nice Work If You Can Get It." His serious works include the opera "Porgy and Bess," and the American classic "Rhapsody in Blue." Gershwin attended Commerce High School in Manhattan, training to be an accountant in his dad's restaurant, but left at 16 when he was hired to play the piano for ten hours a day on Tin Pan Alley. His first break came three years later when his song "Swanee" made a star out of singer Al Jolson. Moving on to Broadway, he wrote scores for revues and musical comedies, notably "Lady Be Good," "Strike Up The Band," "Girl Crazy" and "Of Thee I Sing." During this time Gershwin enrolled in Columbia University, where he studied Nineteenth Century Romanticism in Music and Elementary Orchestra, filling his "tune books" with, ideas, song, and musical composition. Orchestra leader Paul Whiteman was presenting a jazz concert on 2/12/1924 entitled "An Experiment in Modern Music" at Aeolian Hall in New York. A press release went out announcing that pianist George Gershwin would compose a special piece for his orchestra, an announcement that caught Gershwin unaware. Nevertheless, the amiable young composer agreed to write a piece entitled "An American Rhapsody" and was given three weeks to complete it. Brother Ira, now Gershwin's lyricist, suggested the title "Rhapsody in Blue" after hearing the proliferation of minor notes in his brother's experimental composition, a piece that, according to George, would be a "musical kaleidoscope of America - of our vast melting pot...our blues, our metropolitan madness." The name stuck, the piece was finished on schedule, and the concert began.

Then there are his songs, many of which are written by the other Gershwin Ira.
