Gershwin/arr. Bennett Porgy and Bess: A Symphonic Picture

Gershwin’s landmark opera spun off so many great tunes—“Summertime,” “It Ain’t Necessarily So” and a dozen others will have you singing your way into summer.

Gershwin Concerto in F

Proving he was way more than a one-hit wonder after his Rhapsody in Blue, Gershwin poured the energy of Manhattan on a Saturday night into this sparkler for piano and orchestra. Superstar Daniil Trifonov wraps up our season with a bang.
