George and Ira: The Last Songs

The last year of George’s life, the Gershwin team wrote the songs for three films: Shall We Dance; Damsel in Distress; and Goldwyn Follies.

With these songs, the Gershwins would infuse the subtle, sophisticated musical and lyric brilliance of their political operettas and Porgy and Bess into mainstream popular song, cementing their songwriting legacy for evermore.
