Composed by George Gershwin and Ira Gershwin. Arranged by Steve Cohen. This edition: pdf. 20th Century, Broadway, Jazz, Musical/Show. 13 pages. Steve Cohen Music #1218607. Published by Steve Cohen Music (A0.1880857)."Love Is Here to Stay" was the last musical composition George Gershwin completed before his death on July 11, 1937. Ira Gershwin wrote the lyrics after George's death as a tribute to his brother. Although George had not written a verse for the song, he did have an idea for it that both Ira and pianist Oscar Levant had heard before his death. When a verse was needed, Ira and Levant recalled what George had in mind. Composer Vernon Duke reconstructed the music for the verse at the beginning of the song.[2][8] Originally titled "It's Here to Stay" and then "Our Love Is Here to Stay," the song was finally published as "Love Is Here to Stay." Ira Gershwin said that for years he wanted to change the song's name back to "Our Love Is Here to Stay," but he felt it wouldn't be right since the song had already become a standard.
Steve Cohen's string quartet arrangement includes the verse, and features a cello solo in the middle.
