Ten Oscar-winning Songs That Actually Hold Up

23 February 2009 4:58 AM, PST | ifc.com | See recent IFC news »

Music has accompanied film almost since film's invention, whether performed live, cued off rudimentary wax cylinders or digitally recorded. When thoughtfully employed, a song can lift a scene from the boundaries of entertainment into the realm of art. "The Jazz Singer" featured synched songs back in 1927, but it wasn't until 1934 and the 7th Academy Awards that Oscars were given out for them.

Arts at St. Johns will explore, through a selection of songs, how the format of the Broadway musical originated in New York City in the late 1800's, through a collaboration of talented theater actors, vaudeville performers and burlesque dancers, led by the lavish producer Florenz Ziegfeld. The first popular shows, written by great American composers such as the Gershwins, Irving Berlin, and Jerome Kern, were campy, fun, and poetic, with various plots, songs, flashy costumes and, at times, risque subject matter. »
