Omschrijving
'… a worthwhile addition to the ever-growing body of Gershwin studies.' Andrew Farach-Colton, Gramophone
'… a worthwhile addition to the ever-growing body of Gershwin studies.' Andrew Farach-Colton, Gramophone
'To know where we are with Gershwin now, clearly, one should go with the Cambridge Companion.' Russell Davies, The Times Literary Supplement
'Equally at home in the concert hall or on Broadway and, later, with movies and popular music, George Gershwin (1898–1937) was a crossover artist before that term was commonly used. He continues to grab the attention of a diverse array of musicologists, and many of today's noted Gershwin experts are represented in the pages of this contribution to the 'Cambridge Companions to Music' series. The breadth of the writings in this volume illustrates how widely Gershwin's accomplishments are spread.' J. Farrington, Choice
'In this rich cornucopia of essays about Gershwin's life, work, and continuing legacy, the authors individually and collectively bring new appreciations to an extraordinary multi-faceted musical career. Whether read as single chapters or cover to cover, this book is a joy.' William A. Everett, University of Missouri-Kansas City Conservatory
Anna Harwell Celenza is the Thomas E. Caestecker Professor of Music at Georgetown University, where she also serves as core faculty in the American Studies Program. She is the author/editor of many scholarly books, including the award-winning Jazz Italian Style: From Its Origins in New Orleans to Fascist Italy and Sinatra (Cambridge, 2017). She has published numerous articles on a range of composers, from Franz Liszt and Gustav Mahler to Duke Ellington, Billy Strayhorn and Louis Armstrong.
