GERSHWIN Is Great and here is Why 

He was a true genius. I've always wanted to see a biopic movie about his life. From Tin Pan Alley to high society millionaire composer.

This is so well done! More people should see this. Learned and entertained while learning about Gershwin. Thank you!

Gershwin in thumbnail doing bombastic side eye 💀

I love that Gershwin and Fred Astaire met as children.

Never knew much of this about Gershwin. Fantastic. As if he has been hiding in plain sight!

Great video thank you so much :)

Two small cavils. Ira is pronounced "Eye-ruh". And the Ella recording you play is her rendition of the verse Irving Berlin's "Isn't It A Lovely Day To Be Caught In The Rain". (A spectacular song, but not by Gershwin.)

Interesting 😮. I love it ❤!

It would be great if his early broadway musicals could be performed again.

It might sounds exaggerated, but I consider Porgy and Bess as the greatest piece of music ever. Of course Gerhswin has been inspired a lot by Verdi, Wagner, Bizet and probably Puccini but he eventually composed an outstanding opera like absolutely no other (and I am talking about the whole original piece, which lasts at least 195 minutes). George Gershwin is a quite underrated composer for what he brought to music history, especially with his orchestral works and he was surely one of the finest composers ever.

Gershwin is/was magnificent - but, in the interests of accuracy ... 3'18" to 3'24" is by Irving Berlin!

Gershwin is beyond great.

An absolutely great example of why legal immigration helps our country.
