Phillip Sear plays a 1941 arrangement 'in classical style' by Gregory Stone of Jerome Kern's famous song from his 1932 musical (with Oscar Hammerstein II) 'Music in the Air'. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Jerome Kern (1885-1945) needs no introduction from me. ''Music in the Air' was written as a follow-up to the highly successful 'Showboat' from 1927, but, despite having some famous songs, has rarely been revived. 'I've told ev'ry little star' has been recorded many times, but became a big hit in 1961 when an up-tempo pop version sung by Linda Scott was featured in the film 'Mulholland Drive' . The arranger, Gregory Stone (1900-91) was born in Odesa, Ukraine, but immigrated to the USA after the revolution, and worked in New York for the T. B. Harms publishing house as an arranger for Broadway shows. He later moved to California, where he worked for film studios.
