George Gershwin
George Gershwin's compositions present two somewhat conflicting musical personalities: the composer of serious music and the ingenious tunesmith of popular songs. This program highlights this dichotomy as it looks at the man and the artist through the eyes of some of the people who knew him – lyricist Irving Caesar, his sister Frances Godowsky and his lifelong friend Mabel Schirmer. Michael Feinstein performs some of his songs.
