Move page[edit]

This page should be moved to Shall We Dance (1937 film), since there are two other films with the same name. --Nehrams2020 23:47, 26 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, but they have question marks in the titles. Brutannica 04:39, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Also, this is about an orchestral piece of music that stands alone from the film, not some background underscore. It deserves its own entry. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Stackedaktor (talk • contribs) 01:51, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Individual compositions[edit]

There are some newish articles floating around devoted to individual compositions from this film's score. Even though Gershwin is obviously notable, his individual compositions for this film probably aren't on their own, so I'm suggesting (as I find these articles) that any relevant info be merged here. --Darkwind (talk) 04:52, 24 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Overture to Shall We Dance is one such example. --Darkwind (talk) 04:53, 24 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

There is a practice of occasional concert performances of some of Gershwin's overtures to his stage musicals and this could make them suitable candidates for separate articles. But, afaik, this is not the case with film scores such as Shall We Dance, A Damsel in Distress or The Goldwyn Follies, and he never created orchestral suites for such scores for concert performance as some other film composers have done. On balance I agree that such information should be integrated into this article. D7240 (talk) 11:10, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
