In 1924 jazz musician and orchestra leader Paul Whiteman decided to organize a special concert to show that jazz was serious music.Gershwin agreed to compose something for the concert before he realized he had just a few weeks to do it.And in that short time，he composed a piece for piano and orchestra which he called Rhapsody in Blue.Gershwin himself played the piano at the concert.The audience were thrilled when they heard his music.It made him world­famous and showed that jazz music could be both serious and popular.In 1928，Gershwin went to Paris.He applied to study composition (作曲)with the well-known musician Nadia Boulanger，but she rejected him.She was afraid that classical study would ruin his jazz­influencedstyle.While there，Gershwin wrote An American in Paris.When it was first performed，critics (评论家)were divided over the music.Some called it happy and full of life，to others it was silly and boring.But it quickly became popular in Europe and the United States.It still remains one of his most famous works.George Gershwin died in 1937，just days after doctors learned he had brain cancer.He was only thirty­nine years old.Newspapers all over the world reported his death on their front pages.People mourned the loss of the man and all the music he might have still written.【语篇解读】本文讲述了George Gershwin 一位伟大的音乐家的一生，对音乐界及世界的影响。
