George Gershwin
„Song book“, „Rhapsody in blue” and more
Michael Endres, piano
In addition to Rhapsody in Blue, George Gershwin is
most frequently associated with individual songs.
It is less well known that Gershwin himself arranged
the most popular of these for piano. At first,
they were published under the title “George Gershwin
at the Keyboard”.
This new recording, presents 18 pieces from his
songbook in fantastic interpretations by Michael Endres.
Of course, Rhapsody in Blue is also included; it is
almost more impressive in the arrangement for piano
solo as it is with large orchestra.
