Answer:

George Gershwin

Explanation:

George Gershwin (1898-1937) pioneered a new era in American folk music by translating the classical musical tradition to Broadway and vice versa. He produced most of his works, 22 Broadway musicals and over 700 popular songs, in partnership with his older brother, lyricist and lyricist, Ira Gershwin. Together they created special rhythms, unique lyrics and melodies that were recorded in the popular imagination. "George Gershwin was a musical genius - for him writing a song was as natural as breathing."

Among the successes of the Gershwin brothers we can mention "I Got Rhythm", "Embraceable You", "The Man I Love", "Someone to Watch Over Me", world famous songs to this day. For music admirers and scholars, Gershwin revealed his musical talent in his first major work, "Rhapsody in Blue", a symphonic jazz piece released in 1924, in which the composer synthesizes the elements of European classical music with pop, jazz and jazz music. blues. He also produced, in partnership with Ira, the 1935 opera "Porgy and Bess", his first foray into dramaturgy.
