ArtsAlive: George Gershwin
Did you know one of our most famous American composers was not a good student? Did you know that he actually had poor report cards and skipped classes?
Get to know more about the first American-born musician to appear on the cover of Time magazine with ArtsAlive. This Site of the Day from the National Arts Centre of Canada provides a nice biography on the life and music of George Gershwin (1898-1937 CE). Content includes information on the early life of Gershwin and his job at Remick’s, his breakthrough into songwriting, his most famous compositions, and his tragic death.
