Composed by Dorothy Heyward, Du Bose Heyward, George Gershwin, and Ira Gershwin. Arranged by Filippo Forcone. 20th Century,Blues,Broadway,Jazz,Musical/Show,Opera. 10 pages. Filippo Forcone #812963. Published by Filippo Forcone (A0.1216355).Summertime by George Gershwin is a hauntingly beautiful aria from the opera Porgy and Bess. Blending elements of jazz, blues, and classical music, it has become one of the most famous and widely covered songs in history. The song evokes the languid, hot atmosphere of the American South, with its lullaby-like melody and soothing, soulful tones. The lyrics reflect a sense of calm and optimism, describing a peaceful, carefree life for a child. Gershwin’s masterful use of harmonies and the song’s timeless, ethereal quality make Summertime an enduring classic in both opera and popular music.
