Known primarily for his jazz-tinged orchestral work \u003ci\u003eRhapsody in Blue\u003c\/i\u003e, his folk opera \u003ci\u003ePorgy and Bess\u003c\/i\u003e, and his many wonderful songs featured in the films of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, Gershwin and his lyricist brother Ira were key figures in the songwriting circles of pre-war America. Rodney Greenberg’s lively biography paints a vivid picture of this exciting era in the development of American music, and places Gershwin’s life and career within the social and cultural contexts in which he flourished.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Phaidon Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57238671786308,"sku":"tpk1789238244619","price":8.97,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0972\/4490\/5796\/files\/george-gershwin_1.jpg?v=1789238254","url":"https:\/\/www.biloommall.com\/products\/george-gershwin","provider":"amiteagni","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
