The Life and Music of Vincent Youmans
Hardcover: 278 pages
Publisher's blurb:
Of all the popular song composers of the Roaring Twenties--Jerome Kern, George Gershwin, Cole Porter, Irving Berlin--it was Vincent Youmans above all who represented to Zelda Fitzgerald the giddy momentum and freewheeling spirit of the jazz age. The distinguished music critic Irving Kolodin considers him one of the six great composers of American musical comedy.
