Blessed with prodigious ambition and energy, Berlin wrote at least 4 or 5 new songs a week, many of which were discarded. Hamm (Music in the New World, 1983, etc.) presents Berlin as the product of the "radically multicultural milieu" of turn-of-the-century New York City, with its range of musical styles, which influenced Berlin's early music.
