If you hate homework but like roller sk ating\, you have something in common with American composer George Gershwi n. Born in Brooklyn\, New York to Russian immigrant parents\, George loved to play street hockey\, &lsquo\;cat&rsquo\;\, and punch ball. He didn&rsq uo\;t even have an interest in music until his family got him a piano when he was twelve. Nine years later he had his first hit\, &ldquo\;Swanee&rdq uo\;\, with lyrics written by Irving Caesar. No one else in the Gershwin f amily was musical\, but George was fascinated by music. When he heard a sc hoolmate play the violin\, George struck up a friendship with the boy who introduced him to the world of concert music.

So much so that he wrote a composition about the beverage. Alt hough known mostly for his liturgical music\, his Coffee Cantata (AKA Schw eigt stille\, plaudert nicht\, BWV 211) is a rare example of a secular wor k by the composer. The short comic opera was written (circa 1735) for a mu sical ensemble called The Collegium Musicum based in a storied Zimmerman’s coffee house in Leipzig\, Germany. The whole cantata seems very much to h ave been written with the local audience in mind.
