The light and shadow of America depicted through sophisticated piano
William Bolcom injects modern intelligence and deep affection into Gershwin's melodies.
The delicate touch, evoking fragments of "Rhapsody in Blue," gracefully sways the boundary between jazz and classical music. Bolcom's interpretation brings Gershwin's original rhythms and melodies back to life in even more vivid colors.
