Rhapsody In Blue by George Gershwin
Rhapsody in Blue is a concert work by George Gershwin, first presented at New York's Aeolian Hall on February 12, 1924. It was commissioned for Paul Whiteman's experiment in joining jazz and concert music. The opening clarinet glissando announces the work before the piano has to explain itself. From there, blue notes, broad melodies, and orchestral color keep the piece balanced between looseness and design. The selected catalog source uses the complete work title. It confirms a community score reference, but it does not by itself establish whether the arrangement covers the orchestral version, the composer's piano reduction, or a particular excerpt.
