Rhapsody and the Blues

Hear George Gershwin’s ‘Rhapsody in Blue’ premiered…again! This is the first NEW arrangement of Gershwin’s iconic work since the original dance band version of 1924 and the ensuing orchestral arrangement of 1942. Masterfully arranged by Matt Catingub, this rendition will feature a special guest pianist and internationally renowned solo virtuoso Jens Lindemann on piccolo trumpet. Hear the Rhapsody as you never have before in an exciting rendition that pays homage to the legacy of this extraordinary work. This arrangement was created especially for big band, so it swings with a quicker beat. This concert will also feature the music of Duke Ellington, Oscar Peterson, Nat King Cole and more.
