Excerpt:Concerto in F II. Adagio
Working from Gershwin’s original manuscripts, Steven Richman and the Harmonie Ensemble/New York recapture the lean, unsentimental style the composer intended for “An American in Paris” and “Concerto in F” (here featuring Lincoln Mayorga, piano soloist). Also included are the first recordings of the Overture to “Of Thee I Sing” (radio version) and Roy Bargy’s orchestration of the “Three Preludes”. “America’s best and most knowledgeable Gershwin interpreter” (BR KLASSIK)
