As American music reached the world in the 20th century, Jewish-American songwriters played a major part. From the patriotism of Irving Berlin to the protest of Bob Dylan, from the jazz-inflected Gershwin show tunes to the coming-of-age ballads of Carole King, from the unforgettable melodies of Richard Rodgers to the sophisticated pop of Paul Simon, and from "Over The Rainbow" to "The Way We Were" to "The Producers," these writers have created some of the most historic songs of our time. Join Rod MacDonald and The Humdingers for a low-decibel celebration in song of these and more great writers of popular music for the ages.
