IRVING BERLIN SOONGBOOK- CHEEK TO CHEEK |  |
Description:
Irving Berlin, with a life that spanned more than 100 years and catalogue that boasted over 1,000 songs, epitomized Jerome Kern's famous maxim that "Irving Berlin has no place in American music he is American music." And his music an outpouring of ballads, dance numbers, novelty tunes and love songs served as a social barometer for mufch of the 20th century: it marched to war with soldiers, offered hope and isperation to a nation in bleak times, and rejoiced in the good things embodled in the American way of life. It also provided anthems for american culture in such standards as "White Christmas," "Easter Parade," "God Bless America," and "There's No Business Like Show Business." |
