SONGOOK 6, Volume 2

Following on the success of SONGBOOK 6 from the Spring 2022 semester, this course returns to explore a new set of classics from the Great American Songbook: “Puttin’ on the Ritz” (Irving Berlin, 1929), “Dancing in the Dark” (Arthur Schwartz & Howard Dietz, 1931), “I Get a Kick Out of You” (Cole Porter, 1934), “Speak Low” (Kurt Weill & Ogden Nash, 1943), “Luck Be a Lady” (Frank Loesser, 1950), and “I Could Have Danced All Night” (Alan Jay Lerner & Fredrick Loewe, 1956). Sessions examine how and why each song was written, the lives of the song’s creators, the technical elements which make each song so great, and a behind-the-scenes look at the commercial side of each song’s production. Using specially created media, vintage and contemporary recordings, film and video, classes are designed to enrich the understanding of these masterworks and the extraordinary level of craft, influence and popularity each achieved.
