主持人：Marvin Lee 孖焚

From January, Jazzing Up will start each episode with a different rendition of that most exciting jazz standard, I Got Rhythm, by George Gershwin, with lyrics by his brother Ira.  The Gershwin brothers originally conceived of it as a slow song, and first used it in the rather unsuccessful musical Treasure Girl, from 1928.  Never ones to waste a good idea, they pepped up the song with a faster tempo and stuck it in Girl Crazy, where it was first sung by Ethel Merman, and it became an instant hit--albeit two years after it was originally debuted!  The tune is so well-known that it has been covered by everyone from Duke Ellington to Fozzy Bear from The Muppets, and on Jazzing Up we'll hear many of those--so be sure to join me, Christopher Coleman, each Sunday at 11:00 pm for I've Got Rhythm and so much more!
