Youthful, boldly autographed 8” x 10” Underwood & Underwood double-weight photograph of the legendary Russian born American Tin Pan Alley and Broadway composer at the piano. Berlin, who never could write, nor read music, was one of the most prolific composer’s of his generation, albeit his preference to write in the key of “f sharp major.” Songs like “God Bless America,” “Alexander’s Rag Time Band,” “Puttin’ on the Ritz,” “Blue Skies” and “White Christmas” are still played today. His Broadway hits, from “Annie Get Your Gun,” to his music for the “Ziegfeld Follies Revues” made him the toast of New York. Berlin was also one of the earliest composers for film and his music for “Top Hat,” “Puttin’ on the Ritz,” “On the Avenue,” “This is the Army,” Blue Skies,” “The Cocoanuts,” and “There’s No Business Like Show Business” are among his very best. This photograph is one of the finest images we have seen of the composer! |
