Philip Furia traces the development of Ira Gershwin's lyrical art from his early love of light verse and Gilbert and Sullivan, through his apprentice work in Tin Pan Alley, to his emergence as a prominent writer for the Broadway musical theater in the 1920s. Furia illuminates his work in satirical operettas such as Of Thee I Sing and Strike Up the Band, the smart "little" revues of the 1930s, and his contributions to the opera Porgy and Bess.10aGershwin, Ira, d1896-1983 940210 0aLyricistszUnited StatesvBiography. 4aLetristas zEstados Unidos vBiografía940211423Publisher descriptionuhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0635/94045715-d.html423Contributor biographical informationuhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0723/94045715-b.html  a7bcbccorignewd1eocipf19gy-gencatlg  2lcccBK  c122561d122561  00102lcc40708RRaBJBbBJBcRRd2024-12-10l0oB ML 423 G381F 1996p00000186845r2024-12-10 00:00:00t1w2024-12-10yBK
