Celebrating George Gershwin on his birthday – an original in terms of crossover music – classical and jazz …. and even pop for those who remember Australian Normie Rowe‘s first hit single. Worth a listen to compare and contrast.
And, of course, some ‘real’? classical music, ending the show with two very different versions of the Benedictus.
