    Masterworks I

    A Night on the Town

    The season opens on a high note with two inspired takes on Gershwin. Stewart Goodyear plays the classic Rhapsody in Blue, followed by jazzy variations on I’ve Got Rhythm performed by The Menefield/Phillips Quartet. Symphony No.1 by Black composer William Grant Still blends classical symphonic form with spirituals, blues, and jazz. This landmark composition influenced Gershwin, who in turn inspired Bernstein.

    Enjoy familiar, distinctively American themes woven throughout.
