Description: | Marking the centenary of Gershwinâ??s Rhapsody in Blue, Universal Music Italy present Chailly and Bollaniâ??s thrilling recording in a limited and numbered 180gram 2-LP gatefold blue vinyl edition.
Chailly blends the classical elegance and sophistication of the Gewandhaus Orchestra with the jazz/blues sensibility of the mercurial Milan-born jazz legend Stefano Bollani.
The Rhapsody is performed in Groféâ??s original jazz-band version (orchestrated by Paul Whiteman), and in Gershwinâ??s original symphonic orchestration of the Concerto Chailly and Bollani leave no doubt that this is an American Jazz Age concerto.
Catfish Row, Gershwinâ??s own five-movement orchestral suite from Porgy and Bess provides a bridge between the Rhapsody and the Concerto and Gershwinâ??s earliest significant work, the Broadway-inspired rag Rialto Ripples rounds out the set. - ..
