Sommario/riassunto |
|
'Who Should Sing Ol' Man River?' tells the almost 80-year performance history of a great popular song. Examining over 200 recorded and filmed versions of Jerome Kern and Oscar Hammerstein II's classic song, the book reveals the power of performers to remake one popular song into many different guises. |
