Comment:

Among the handful of iconic classic American songwriters, the Gershwins stand alone. Shifting effortlessly between serious and popular music, the Gershwins excelled at both; they then fused the two, creating [i]Porgy and Bess[/i], the first great American opera. You're about to comprehend the range and quality of George & Ira's multi-faceted musical mastery.
