“Gershwin is really unique in the history of music. He wrote highly individual music that’s instantly recognisable. (…) Gershwin’s approach to tonality combines a whole series of harmonic and melodic ideas with new and exotic elements that few composers had thought of till then: jazz and classical music, America and Europe, black and white link hands here. (…) Porgy and Bess is my favourite opera in English. I wanted to produce an anthology of its most beautiful themes. I wrote these arrangements thinking of a small jazz band.” Fazil Say

One of Fazil Say’s most exciting albums, recorded in New York at the end of the 90s. Virtuosity, rhythmic mastery, humour and the true Gerhswin spirit: everything is on this album.
