About A.Von Tilzer

Albert Von Tilzer (March twenty nine, 1878 - October one, 1956) was an Yankee songwriter, the younger brother of fellow songwriter Harry Von Tilzer. He wrote the music to many hit songs, together with, most notably, "Take Me Out To The Ball Game". He was born Albert Gumm, in Indianapolis, Indiana; his last name had been shortened from "Gumbinski" - or possibly "Guminski" - by his parents. As a young man he worked briefly at his older brother Harry Von Tilzer's publishing company, and Albert's earliest songs were printed by Harry. At intervals a very few years Albert formed his own firm, The York Publishing Company, and there seems to own been no further collaboration between Albert and Harry Von Tilzer, though each of them wrote and revealed many tons of songs. "Tilzer" was Albert and Harry's mother's maiden name. When oldest brother Harry began his song writing career he assumed the professional name, "Von Tilzer", adding the honorific "Von" to his mother's maiden name. Albert followed suit, as did younger brothers Can and Jules Von Tilzer, both of whom were conjointly active within the music industry. Von Tilzer was a high Tin Pan Alley tune author, producing various fashionable music compositions from 1900 continuing through the first fifties. He collaborated with many lyricists, together with Jack Norworth, Lew Brown, and Harry MacPherson. A variety of his tunes were performed (and recorded) by jazz bands and still be played decades later. His songs included "The Alcoholic Blues", "(I will Be With You) In Apple Blossom Time", "Chili Bean", "Dapper Dan", "Honey Boy", "I Could Be Gone for a Long, Long Time", "I am Glad I'm Married", "I am the Lonesomest Gal in Town", "The Moon Has His Eye On You", "My Cutie's Due at Two-to-Two", "My Very little Girl", "Oh By Jingo!", "Oh How She Might Yacki-Hacki, Wicki-Wacki, Woo" (interpolated into the show Houp La!, 1916, and recorded by Ida Adams), "Put on Your Slippers and Fill Up Your Pipe, You're Not Going Bye-Bye Tonight", "Place Your Arms Around Me Honey", "Roll Along, Prairie Moon", "Take Me Out To The Ball Game", "Wait Till You Get Them Up in the Air, Boys", "Tell Me With Your Eyes", and tons of others. He died in Los Angeles, California.
