"A man writes a piece of music which he considers serious but which is pretty awful; he labels his work classic, and an unsuspecting public accepts his label. Labels mean nothing at all. Good music is good music, even if you call it oysters." To Gershwin, show tunes were as important as concert works, and he saw no contradiction in writing both. To mark the 60th anniversary of Gershwin's death, pianist Jack Gibbons follows his development as a composer and investigates the relationship between works written for Broadway,
Hollywood and the concert hall.
Illustrated at the keyboard and from original recordings.
With Ben Kingsley as George Gershwin.
