An illustrated talk on the lives, music and lyrics of George and Ira Gershwin, with musical interludes, by the always-entertaining Emma Anderson.

The talk is both a history and an appreciation, including George’s music, much of which the audience will recognise even if they don’t know the composer. Ira was a brilliant, Pulitzer Prize-winning lyricist, who collaborated with his younger brother George to create some of the most memorable English-language songs of the 20th century.
