Adler was born in Baltimore, Maryland, to Sadie Hack and Louis Adler. They were a Jewish family. He graduated from Baltimore City College high school. He taught himself harmonica, which he called a mouth-organ. He played professionally at 14. In 1927, he won a contest sponsored by the Baltimore Sun, playing a Beethovenminuet, and a year later he ran away from home to New York. After being referred by Rudy Vallée, Adler got his first theatre work, and caught the attention of orchestra leader Paul Ash, who placed Adler in a vaudeville act as "a ragged urchin, playing for pennies".
Career
From there, he was hired by Florenz Ziegfeld and then by Lew Leslie again as an urchin. He broke the typecasting and appeared in a dinner jacket in the 1934 Paramount film Many Happy Returns, and was hired by theatrical producer C. B. Cochran to perform in London. He became a star in the United Kingdom and the Empire, where, it has been written, harmonica sales increased 20-fold and 300,000 people joined fan clubs.".

Larry Adler plays Summertime in three arrangements
Three performances of Summertime by Larry Adler - orchestral, solo with piano and a great performance with Itzhak Perlman - excellently edited together. I would love to be able to credit the editor.

Verse 1: Hasta la madre porque no fumo poco Se enciende el foco cada vez que lo toco Suena que truena el coco (HA), como si nada produce el corto Vuelo sin mis alas puestas, no pierdo la paciencia Tomo el tiempo suficiente pa' llenar el tanque Selección de lo mejor, vicio sin abuso Vida que se lleva con el grito del consumo Comprar, utilizar, acabar y así llenar Ese vacío que se siente con sólo estar aquí A un lado de ti, artillera de mi vida ven a mí Verse 2: Simplemente reflejo de tierra Especial estrella de la sierra Ausencia en cantidad no en manera Rueda y rueda, es seno, es vena Diferente eterna en esfera Dentro renueva, dentro opera Lazos o trazos, humildes, amenas No conocido, no siendo ajena Propias, íntegras, siempre serenas No pena en el diario tema Llena la esfera bendición morena Cubre escena ofrendo y quema Chorus: x2 Simplemente... la mera mera Verse 3: Naturalmente vientre que encierra Crea, dirige, evoca, no cierra Despega, navega, planea Libre nazca, viva, muera Unos o unos cuantos afuera Unos cuantos tantos suena Llena santa mera mera Mientras este, mientras pueda Propias, íntegras, serenas Agua, aire, fuego, hierba Fuera de sí o de su esquema Bailas, hablas, brazas encima Repeat Chorus x3 Verse 4: Luciérnaga frente a mí, siempre se consume y es dentro de mí Que se desarrolla esa sensación de libertad, relajación Al fondo llegar para emerger salir y responder al deseo de flotar Organizar tiempo y movimiento, distancia que se acorta La verdad desde las alturas de mi mundo, la cura cultura Siempre que procuro manejar la bala de plata, se desliza Dejando huella. Repeat Chorus x4
