JEROME KERN This world-famous Composer was born in New ~ o r k
on 27th January, 1885. At the age of eighteen he came to England, where he com-
menced his earliest compositions, which were introduced into the popular Musical
Plays then running in London. A notable early success was his number e n t i w ;
" They Didn't Believe we ". Jerome Kern was at one time part of that great
triumvirate in musical productions, namely Guy Bolton, P. G. Wodehouse and
himself. He has also ~ollaboratedwith Harry B. Smith, Anne Caldwell, Oscar
Hammersteis JI and Otto Harbach.
Jerame Kern's music is conducive to sales. His music construction is never
trite and in his m e l d e s he shuns the commonplace. This sometimes makes for a
rather charming elusiveness. When a Kern melody, haunts you, you find yourself
eagerly purchasing the music.
He feels, however, that he is most successful when writing 'simple folk-songs,
and he has gained recognition for this type of melo&. " The ~ i i h was t Made for
Love " has been appropriated as a French tune ; " 01' Man River " is accepted as
a Negro Spiritual ; "Ka-lu-a " as a native Hawaiian composition, and '"Twas not
so long ago " as a German Lied.
When composing, Jerome Kern goes into a physical and mental retirement,.
in which he follows the example of Richard Wagner. Keni, too, steeps himself in
the characters with which the librettist supplies him and allows his imagination
to absorb him completely, still permitting his musical fingers to mark down his
derpretations as they come to him.
The popularity of Jerome Kern h& consistently increased from his earliest
successes, and to-day it can be truthfully said that he is one of the foremost Corn
posersCofmusical plays and films. His work is always musicianly, with a keen
sense of melodic charm. A list of his many musical plays, including the-World-
famous " SHOW BOAT ", conjures .up in one's mind some of the' great out-
standing successes of past years.
Jerome Kern readily adapted himself to Talking Films, and he has composed
the music for a number of recent Film successes.
