05862Garden City New York: Doubleday & Company Inc. 1987. From the Gershwin Circle - An Advance Proof with Hollywood Reach<br /> A Pre-Publication Copy of the Definitive Gershwin Biography with Publisher's Appeal to Liza Minnelli<br /> <br /> GERSHWIN George. JABLONSKI Edward. Gershwin. Garden City New York: Doubleday & Company Inc. 1987.<br /> <br /> First edition. Advance Uncorrected Proof. Octavo 9 5/8 x 6 5/8 inches; 244 x 168 mm. 2 xviii 1-419 1 blank pp.<br /> <br /> Publisher's original pink wrappers front cover and spine lettered in black. A fine unusually well-preserved example.<br /> <br /> Loosely inserted is an original typed letter on Doubleday letterhead dated May 11 1987 signed by Harold Kuebler Senior Editor and addressed to:<br /> <br /> Liza Minnelli<br /> c/o Creative Management Associates<br /> New York<br /> The letter announces the forthcoming publication of Edward Jablonski's biography and solicits Minnelli's endorsement noting: Jablonski's nearly fifty-year engagement with the Gershwin circle; His correspondence with Ira Gershwin; Use of Gershwin Archives material interview tapes and unpublished photographs and the publisher's hope that Minnelli might provide a supporting quotation.<br /> Stamped "Received May 22 1987 Michael R. Black" indicating internal agency handling.<br /> <br /> An appealing and context-rich pre-publication artifact linking the scholarly authority of Edward Jablonski with the living performance tradition of Gershwin interpretation embodied by Liza Minnelli.<br /> <br /> Advance Uncorrected Proofs are by nature ephemeral - produced in small numbers for reviewers insiders and promotional outreach. What elevates this example is the surviving publisher's letter which captures a precise moment in the book's launch strategy: Doubleday actively seeking validation from leading performers closely associated with the American musical canon.<br /> <br /> Minnelli as daughter of Judy Garland and a major interpreter of the Great American Songbook represents exactly the sort of cultural authority the publisher hoped to enlist. The letter thus provides a fascinating window into the marketing and reception of Gershwin's legacy in the late twentieth century. Garden City, New York: Doubleday & Company, Inc., 1987 unknown

6038GEORGE GERSHWIN 1898-1937. Gershwin was an American composer and pianist whose compositions spanned popular jazz and classical genres.TLS. 1 pg. 8 x 10. March 31 1931. New York. A typed letter signed George Gershwin to Mr. Simon Bucharoff: Ive been looking through your book called A sic MODERN PIANISTS TEXT BOOK and fine that it is practically complete from a pianists standpoint. If I were to go on tour playing the piano I feel that your book would be the only one necessary to take along so far as developing and keeping up the technique is concerned. I will be happy to recommend your book wherever possible. Good luck to you. Simon Bucharoff 1881-1955 was a Russian-American pianist composer and educator who lectured and taught on the piano and musical composition. His textbook on the piano was published in 1931 and Gershwins endorsement surely would have been used for marketing and commercial purposes. The same year this letter was sent Gershwins Of Thee I Sing became the first musical comedy to win the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. The letter is paired with a black-and-white image of Gershwin. Both are mounted on white in a black wooden frame. All are in fine condition though the letter has some folds and the signature is somewhat light. unknown

1937145295Detroit January 20 1937. Special Detroit Symphony Concert display program featuring Gershwin as conductor and pianist. One page small octavo Special Detroit Symphony Concert display program selections of 'Porgy and Bess' and 'Rhapsody in Blue' clipped and adhered to the front advertisements to the rear. Presentation copy inscribed by George Gershwin "to Charlotte Good wishes George Gershwin." In near fine condition with a few tiny punctures and light corner creasing. The piece is 5.5 inches by 8.75 inches. Famed musician George Gershwin signed this program only six months before his death. The Special Detroit Symphony Concert featuring Gershwin conducting and on the piano highlighted some of his best work including 'Rhapsody in Blue' and 'Porgy and Bess.' The concert was well-received and Gershwin was invited to perform the next season; however after Gershwin returned to Beverly Hills to prepare for another concert he began to suffer blinding headaches and a recurring impression that he smelled burning rubber. At his Los Angeles performance on February 11 1937 Gershwin normally a superb pianist suffered coordination problems and blackouts during the concert. These headaches and olfactory hallucinations continued for months until his collapse and subsequent coma. In the early hours of July 11 1937 doctors at Cedars removed a large brain tumor but unfortunately Gershwin died that morning at the age of 38. unknown
