The Complete Lyrics of Irving Berlin
$40.00 CAD
pp. 530, “Berlin came from a poor immigrant family and began his career as a singing waiter, but by the time he was nineteen he was publishing his songs and quickly found fame with “Alexander’s Ragtime Band” in 1911. In the extraordinary six decades that followed, Berlin wrote one popular hit after another: “Blue Skies,” “Always,” “Cheek to Cheek,” “White Christmas,” “God Bless America,” “There’s No Business Like Show Business,” and many, many more. He also wrote a number of the classics of musical theater’s Golden Age, climaxing with Annie Get Your Gun. He penned three Astaire and Rogers films–Top Hat, Carefree, and Follow the Fleet–as well as the scores of Holiday Inn, Easter Parade, and other movies. The breadth of his accomplishments is staggering.”
