    Hoagland Howard “Hoagy” Carmichael was born in 1899 in Bloomington, Indiana. His mother, Lida Mary, was a talented pianist, and she encouraged Hoagy to play and sing from an early age. Aside from some lessons from the jazz pianist Reginald DuValle, he was otherwise musically self-taught. In the early 1920s Carmichael became friends with the great c...

    Hoagy Carmichael often wrote odes to places: “New Orleans”, “Memphis in June”, “Can’t Get Indiana Off My Mind” and, of course, “Georgia On My Mind”. There are Carmichael compositions that are played more often by jazz musicians, but this might be the song of his that is most familiar to modern audiences, largely due to Ray Charles’ soulful 1960 rec...

    Hoagy Carmichael recorded “Star Dust” (it was initially titled as two separate words, before later being re-stylised as “Stardust”) in 1927 as a medium tempo instrumental number with his own piano playing featured front and centre. But two years later wistful lyrics were added by Mitchell Paris (who put words to a number of instrumental composition...

    Although he lived in New York City for a time, and later Los Angeles, Hoagy Carmichael is often characterised as something of a rural songwriter, and his songs are full of pastoral images: “Ole Buttermilk Sky”, “Up a Lazy River”, “Baltimore Oriole”, and that’s just the titles. One particularly lovely example is “Skylark”, which, like “Stardust”, ha...

    Another collaboration with a famous lyricist, “Heart and Soul” was written with Frank Loesser, who would later go on to write both the music and lyrics to the music in the shows Guys and Dolls and How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying. A simplified version of this charming song has become popular as a duet piece for beginner piano studen...

    “Two Sleepy People”, another collaboration with lyricist Frank Loesser, tells the sweet story of a married couple – a “foggy little fella” and a “drowsy little dame” – who are “too much in love to say goodnight”. The 1938 recording by Fats Waller might be the most famous version, but Carmichael also recorded this one himself on Hoagy Sings Carmicha...

    There is an interesting story behind this melancholy number. Whilst studying law at Indiana University, Carmichael was given a poem, credited only to “J.B.”, on a page torn out of Lifemagazine. Years later, in 1938, Carmichael rediscovered the poem in a drawer and wrote this song around it (with a few alterations). Wanting to give credit where it w...

    In his book American Popular Song: The Great Innovators 1900-1950, the composer and writer Alec Wilder says that “One Morning in May” is uncharacteristic of Carmichael’s usual style, comparing it instead to a Jerome Kern song. Certainly its melody is less overtly jazzy, and more flowing and hymn-like in a way that is perhaps reminiscent of Kern son...

    Unlike, say, Cole Porter or Jerome Kern, Hoagy Carmichael was not really a musical theatre composer, but this song was included in a 1936 musical called The Show is On. Along with lyricist Johnny Mercer, he would later write a score for the Broadway show Walk With Music, but, perhaps surprisingly, the production failed and did not leave behind any ...

    The lyrics to this 1938 ballad were written by Ned Washington, who also penned the words to “Stella By Starlight”, “My Foolish Heart” (both with music by Victor Young) and Bronislau Kaper’s “On Green Dolphin Street”. One classic version is the 1956 recording by Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong, on which the pair are accompanied by the Oscar Pete...

  3. Carmichael was one of the most successful Tin Pan Alley songwriters of the 1930s, and was among the first singer-songwriters in the age of mass media to utilize new communication technologies such as television, microphones, and sound recordings .
