The invention of the radio had a profound impact on popular music both in Europe and America, but especially in America, because of the way our heterogeneous culture was affected by the ability of each ethnic group to easily hear the music of other ethnic groups by simply turning on the radio.
Commercial radio came into being towards the end of the first decade of the twentieth century. By the 1920s there were radio stations across the country. People no longer had to gather together at each other's houses or on street corners to hear the latest popular songs. They could just turn on the radio. The speed at which new music spread across the land was greatly increased. Before radio it would take at least a year before a new song would become well known, but with radio, a new song could become an instant hit. And here is a most crucial point-Radio broke down social barriers. Before radio, how many white people do you think would ever have an opportunity to hear black music? Radio disseminated music across the whole spectrum of the social strata and ethnic groups. Irish immigrants listening to the radio would not only hear their own music, but the music of Jews, Blacks, and Poles.
Sometimes the causes of significant changes in society are only apparent in retrospect. The pogroms against the Jews in Czarist Russia at the turn of the twentieth century, had a profound effect on American popular music, though no one could have foreseen it at the time.
The persecution of the Jews in Russia produced a huge wave of migration of Russian Jews to America at the turn of the twentieth century. Among the millions of Russian-Jewish immigrants who came to America were the parents of George and Ira Gershwin. George Gershwin and Irving Berlin were the most influential songwriter of the early twentieth century.
Irving Berlin was only four years old when he arrived at Ellis Island, his parents fleeing from the pogroms in Russia. Along with Gershwin, he changed the nature of the popular song, bringing a strong Russian-Jewish influence to it. And the radio allowed millions of people to hear their songs. The next generation of songwriters couldn't help but be influence by the songs of these Jewish immigrants from Russia. American popular song was changed forever by these two innovators.
