I can't believe I (re)started a big band jazz blog.... :facepalm:

See here for more info on this smokin' album. Then click on the site banner for more big band jazz album recommendations. Or just see a link in my signature. Always return to Audio Science Review, of course. :cool:

Jazz has been called America's classical music. George Gershwin, 1898-1937. Rhapsody in Blue, 1924 is found in many arrangements, including as a piano concerto.

Here the Boston Pops plays Rhapsody in Blue. The piano soloist is Michelle Wu, the mayor of Boston!

"At the Boston Symphony Orchestra's 2024 Concert for the City, Mayor Michelle Wu performed George Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue" with the Boston Pops.

The Concert for the City is a free event that showcases all that the Boston Symphony Orchestra and Boston Pops have to offer, alongside arts and music education partners and programs from throughout Greater Boston.

At the 2023 Concert for the City, Mayor Michelle Wu performed Mozart's Piano Concerto No. 21 in C, K.467 (2nd movement, Andante).

Mayor Wu returned to Symphony Hall this year to perform one of her favorite pieces, Georgie Gershwin's 1924 solo piano and jazz band musical composition, "Rhapsody in Blue."

Mayor Wu is a champion of the arts and music in Boston, helping to make arts education more accessible to young people through her Connect, Learn, Explore summer learning initiative and BPS Sundays, a program making certain museums, zoos, and cultural institutions free for Boston Public Schools students on the first and second Sundays of each month."
