Description
The performance will feature An American in Paris, a symphonic composition by American composer George Gershwin, composed in 1928. Inspired by time Gershwin had spent in Paris, it is in the form of an extended tone poem evoking the sights and energy of the French capital in the 1920s. It is one of Gershwin's best-known compositions. Other selections will include Offenbach’s Overture to La Vie Parisienne, Debussy’s Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun, and Daira Rabotkina performing Ravel’s Piano concerto in G.
