A community portal about George Gershwin with blogs, videos, and photos. According to Wikipedia.org: George Gershwin was an American composer who wrote most of his vocal and theatrical works in collaboration with his elder brother lyricist Ira Gershwin.

George Gershwin composed both for Broadway and for the classical concert hall. He also wrote popular songs with success.
