(Side question: are there superstitions about this opera similar to the superstitions about the Scottish play in the theater world? I've always wondered.)

George Gershwin, composer of classical, pop and jazz pieces and songs. Refused by legendary music teacher Nadia Boulanger (she thought her lessons would ruin his jazz-infused approach).
