Irving Berlin – America’s Musical Heart
The most quintessentially American songwriter of all time, Irving Berlin, was not born in America. The composer of great standards for Christian holidays, such as “Easter Parade” and “White Christmas” was Jewish. And the man who composed some of the most essential standards in the American popular song book could neither read nor write music!
