Irving Berlin, Cole Porter, George and Ira Gershwin, Rodgers and Hart--even today these giants remain household names, their musicals regularly revived, their methods and styles analyzed and imitated, and their songs the bedrock of jazz and cabaret. In this new edition of The Poets of Tin Pan Alley, authors Philip Furia and Laurie Patterson offer a unique perspective on these great songwriters, showing how their poetic lyrics were as important as their brilliant music in shaping a golden age of American popular song. Furia and Patterson continue the tradition of great perception and understanding established in the first edition as they explore the deft rhymes, inventive imagery, and witty solutions these songwriters used to breathe new life into rigidly established genres. They devote full chapters to such greats as Irving Berlin, Lorenz Hart, Ira Gershwin, Cole Porter, Oscar Hammerstain II, Howard Dietz, E.Y. Harburg, Dorothy Fields, Leo Robin, and Johnny Mercer. They also offer a comprehensive survey of other lyricists who wrote for the sheet-music industry, Broadway, Hollywood, and Harlem nightclub revues. This was the era that produced The New Yorker, Don Marquis, Dorothy Parker, and E.B. White--and the book places Tin Pan Alley lyrics firmly in this fascinating historical context. In these pages, the lyrics emerge as an important element of American modernism, as the lyricists, like the great modernist poets, took the American vernacular and made it sing....1059170The Poets of Tin Pan Alley584615https://www.gandhi.com.mx/the-poets-of-tin-pan-alley/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/1160565/cc767992-de53-49f0-839c-433222ce6486.jpg?v=638337507869530000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20229780190906498_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_From the turn of the century to the 1960s, the songwriters of Tin Pan Alley were synonymous with American popular music.
