Klappentext
Harold Arlen's songs like "Over the Rainbow" and "Stormy Weather" form a crucial part of the American soundscape of the twentieth century. From their origins at the Cotton Club of Harlem, the Broadway stage, and Hollywood film studios, they capture an extraordinary range of emotions and styles. Harold Arlen and His Songs is the first book to look at Arlen's music across his long career and through his collaborations with the top lyric writers of his time, including Ted Koehler, Yip Harburg, Johnny Mercer, and Ira Gershwin. The book also discusses Arlen's activities as a singer of his music, as well as the performances of vocalists with a strong affinity for it, like Ethel Waters, Judy Garland, Ella Fitzgerald, and Barbra Streisand.
