The Los Angeles Times has written:  “The talent in the Gershwin family did not end with George and Ira Gershwin.  Their niece, Alexis Gershwin, has inherited the feeling for the melodic musical line from composer George Gershwin, and a respect for words and phrasing from lyricist Ira Gershwin. Miss Gershwin displayed a voice of unusual beauty.  She did credit to the Gershwin songs with the excellent vocal instrument she possesses.

 Miss Gershwin performs with a strong emotional impact, and the fact that she’s lovely to look at does not hurt the general appeal of her act.”

Alexis Gershwin says, “It is my privilege to continue the musical legacy my Uncle George and Uncle Ira have left us by bringing their music to new generations.  Of course, the Gershwin songs are at the top of my list, but I also enjoy singing the music of many other talented composers and lyricists.  Great music should be passed down from generation to generation like any of life’s precious gifts.”

Alexis Gershwin’s program will include songs like:  “I’ve Got A Crush On You,” “Love Is Here To Stay,” “The Man I Love” and “Someone to Watch Over Me,” to name a few.  The Gershwin Singers will be comprised of soprano Sarah Brandon, tenor Will North and alto Kara Shaw.
