Originally written in 1920 for piano, listen for the unique and daring harmonies
as he deliberately composed each hand to be played
in a different key simultaneously, called polytonality!
Completed in March 1928 after the Gershwin’s second trip to Europe. When he was inspired
by the sounds of taxi horns along the Paris boulevards,
Gershwin returned home to incorporate them into his ‘rhapsodic ballet.’
Written in 1899 in protest of the increasing censorship of the Russian Empire, this exciting performance concludes with full chorus singing the hymn!
