Peggy's Skylight | Nottingham
Tickets: £8-£12
Peggy's House Band play The Music of George Gershwin
Gershwin's countless hits for stage and screen, including "Summertime", have inspired jazz musicians perhaps more than any other composer. Be transported to an era of swing, sophistication, and soulful tunes that continue to captivate audiences the world over.
George Gershwin is one of the most important American composers of the 20th century. Born September 26, 1989, in Brooklyn, New York, he did not begin playing piano before the age of 12, but by his mid-teens, he had quit school and was earning a living in music as a 'song-plugger' — pitching sheet music in department stores — on New York's Tin Pan Alley. "It was George Gershwin who paved the way for jazz to become America's only indigenous music"
In his 38 short years, he composed an enviable body of music, including Summertime (the most recorded song ever), and has inspired musicians, particularly in jazz, ever since.
