Extractions: var isReferenceAnswers = true; BodyLoad('s'); On this page Library Who2 Biography: Home Library Miscellaneous Who2 Biographies Name at birth: Jacob Bruskin Gershvin George Gershwin's popular songs and compositions from the 1920s and 1930s include "Let's Call the Whole Thing Off," "They Can't Take That Away From Me" and the symphonic jazz piece Rhapsody in Blue . Gershwin dropped out of high school to work as a songwriter in New York's Tin Pan Alley, and had his first hit with 1919's "Swanee" (performed by Al Jolson). He first earned a living cranking out songs for stage revues and recording player piano rolls. He teamed with his brother, lyricist Ira Gershwin (1896-1983), and together they wrote the songs for Broadway's Lady Be Good (1924), a hit that secured their reputation for lively, clever and memorable songs. Until George died of a brain tumor in 1937, the brothers wrote hundreds of songs together and individually that were used in Broadway shows and Hollywood movies. Gershwin's most popular songs include "Someone to Watch Over Me" and "I Got Rhythm." He was also one of the first "popular" songsmiths to gain praise as a legitimate composer. His compositions for orchestra include Rhapsody in Blue Concerto in F (1925) and An American in Paris (1928). Together, the Gershwins helped elevate American musical theater to a legitimate art form and created some of the best known music of the 20th century.

Extractions: George Gershwin was born Jacob Gershwin on Sept. 26, 1898 in what is now Brooklyn, New York. He died in Hollywood, California on July 11, 1937. He parents were Russian-Jewish immigrants who had come to this country in search of a better life. The family name had been Gershovitz in Russia, but George anglicized it when he began school. He heard jazz first when he was six, and he was exposed to other forms of music as much as possible. When he was 12, George began to study piano. Gershwin had a significant impact on American music. He wrote the scores for several Broadway musicals, but he was also able to blend different styles of music into something that became totally new. Even after he was a successful composer, George continued to study with people who had a different focus on composition. In 1918, George began his professional career as a pianist/vocalist for the Jerome Remick music publishing company.
