An American In Paris, Concerto in F

Album by George Gershwin & Lincoln Mayorga & Harmonie Ensemble New York & Steven Richman

An American in Paris and the Piano Concerto in F are orchestral works by American composer George Gershwin, composed in 1928 and 1925 respectively. Musically they synthesise jazz-era rhythms, blues-derived harmonies and elements of popular song within classical orchestral forms, reflecting Gershwin's effort to bridge American popular music and European concert traditions and helping to shape mid-20th-century American concert music.
