Sydney Symphony Orchestra presents
GERSHWIN’S RHAPSODY IN BLUE
NEW YORK STORIES
Like a wailing siren, the instantly recognisable opening notes of the clarinet set the scene.
Australian pianist Simon Tedeschi brings Gershwin’s jazz-era masterpiece to life, while Bernstein’s music from West Side Story paints a different picture of New York.
We’re in New York City with the jazz era spark forever captured in Gershwin’s pioneering work, Rhapsody in Blue. Audiences were mesmerised at its premiere, and in this performance the acclaimed Australian pianist Simon Tedeschi keeps the magic alive.
