| | Commentary Magazine - Jerome Kern and American Operetta |
| | ...Kern was essentially a melodic-lyric composer, and as such he relegated all dramatic expression to minor musical passages, i.e., to the "verses" of his songs or to the lighter comedy numbers... | | | ...Kern's music with its languid, perfumed melodiousness, and his librettos with their interesting heroines, might be said to result in part from his background... | | | ...AT THE moment, Jerome Kern seems destined to be remembered as a primal source of tuneful ballads for the All-Time Hit Parade-indeed, this is his role in Hollywood's technicolor canonization of the composer, When the Clouds Roll By... |

| | Jerome Kern |
| | Byron, who, according to Ira Gershwin, & the ultimate answer to a lyric writer’s prayers”, was engaged in preparing an album of neglected Kern songs when he discovered the melodies. | | | A new Kern song, like a new Hemingway novel, is, at least in the field of aesthetics and ruthlessness, news of a stop-presses nature. | | | In collaboration with P.G. Wodehouse and Guy Bolton Kern created a series of shows – called the Princess shows, after the theatre in which the majority were mounted - featuring charming melodies combined with witty books and lyrics. |

| | Biography for Jerome Kern |
| | Kern, however, did not experiment any further--his other hit shows, "Music In The Air", "Roberta& Cat and the Fiddle", contain classic songs that are still sung, but the shows are almost never revived. | | | Finally, looking for an entirely different type of musical, Kern decided to adapt Edna Ferber's novel "Show Boat&; to the musical stage. | | | Although Oscar Hammerstein II agreed to do the adaptation and lyrics, nearly everyone (including Ferber) thought Kern and Hammerstein had lost their minds. |

| | In his early teens Kern went to Germany to study at a music conservatory, After which he returned to New York to work at various jobs in the music industry, as a song plugger and a rehersal pianist, and at the age of 17 he had his first song published! | | | Although not an overwhelming success, it was well recieved and the first of the "Princess Theatre Musicals." The Princess Theatre was a tiny theatre (seating 299) and a string of musicals written for the theatre were little, intimate, well integrated musicals. | | | The next in the string was Very Good Eddie, which was a smash hit, and after that sucess Bolton and Kern were joined by P.G. Wodehouse, who helped by taking over the lyrics while Bolton concentrated on the book for subsequent (popular) musicals. |

| | Kern's early writing experience followed the practice of the day, with Kern being one of three or four composers who contributed music to a score. | | | Summing up Kern's great significance, Mast writes: "Kern brought nineteenth-century European musical grace, complexity, construction, and taste to twentieth-century American song, musical theater, and musical films.... | | | According to Mast, "It was the first American musical to tackle an explicitly serious social subject without reducing it to embarrassing claptrap." |
