Gershwin & Bernstein by Barber, Gershwin, Arlen, Bernstein, Revueltas, št 19 okt 2023, Od (2023/2023), Dirigent James Gaffigan, Orchestra Hall, Detroit, United States

Overview An exuberant melding of jazz, blues and classical styles, Gershwin’s Piano Concerto in F is an ideal vehicle for Illinois native Conrad Tao, “a personality-plus pianist with a fearless technique” (Chicago Classical Review). Bernstein’s beloved West Side Story dances include themes from the songs “Somewhere” and “Maria.” Barber’s soulful overture and Revueltas’ joyfully raucous Sensemayá frame the program.
