SUMMARY:Roundtable by the 92nd Street Y: The Revolutionary George Gershwin\, Lecture 1 - “My people are Americans. My time is today”
DESCRIPTION:https://www.roundtable.org/live-courses/music/the-revolutionary-george-gershwin-a-composer-beyond-boundaries\n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n\n\n\n\nFrom his early brilliance as a Tin Pan Alley song plugger to his groundbreaking fusion of classical music and jazz in “Rhapsody in Blue”\, George Gershwin spent his formative years completely re-imagining what American music could be. We begin our 3-part series by tracing his path to the Rhapsody’s electrifying 1924 premiere via enduring musical hits such as “Swanee”\, “I’ll Build a Stairway to Paradise”\, and “Somebody Loves Me.” \n\n\n\n\n\n——————————————————————————————————————————————— \nJoin acclaimed pianist Dr. Rachel Franklin as she demonstrates the genius of Gershwin live at the piano\, enhanced by archival audio and film\, to celebrate his transformative vision for American music. Gershwin’s fusion of jazz\, classical\, Yiddish and other folk styles gave us such vibrant national icons as “Rhapsody in Blue”\, “An American in Paris”\, and “Porgy and Bess”\, now emblems of America’s melting pot self-image\, its vigor and optimism.
