Description
The Great American Musical
In this overview, we’ll cover the 200-year story of American musical theater. We’ll look at the minstrel show, we’ll hear how show music evolved into ragtime, and we’ll see how vaudeville began in New York City and eventually blanketed America. We’ll move through the evolution of musical theater up to the present with brief pauses to look at different types of shows and showcase some particularly important composers such as Irving Berlin, Jerome Kern, George Gershwin, Richard Rodgers, Oscar Hammerstein and more.
