(Community Matters) Loved today’s Terry Gross NPR interview of Michael Feinstein and his relationship with the Gershwins. Not sure why but had me thinking about Will Spong’s discussing the theology of Rodgers and Hammerstein while playing their songs on the piano (we have a CD of this! 🙂 )

I’ve just purchased Feinstein’s The Gershwin’s and Me: A Personal History in 12 Songs

Long before singer and pianist Michael Feinstein became famous in his own right, he had the privilege of working closely with legendary songwriter Ira Gershwin, as his archivist and cataloger.
