Performances by students at U-M’s School of Music, Theatre & Dance mark the first recordings with full orchestration of music from “La, La, Lucille,” George Gershwin’s first complete score, written when he was just 21 years old. The production opened on Broadway in May 1919, toured the Northeast in 1920 and California in 1922, and then was lost to history.

New critical edition of iconic folk opera addresses its complex place in American history.

U-M is now home to a very special Steinway once owned and played by quintessential American composer George Gershwin.
