George Gershwin - Rhapsody In Blue (with score)

George Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue for piano and orchestra. I suggest watching in 1080p to see the notes clearly.

This is the first version I ever heard of this song and it’s the only version I can listen to! Idk why but any other version just doesn’t quite feel the same

Happy 100th anniversary to this elegant piece of jazz!

11:31 may be the most beautiful moment in all of music.

I've had the 1959 Bernstein/NYPO poerformance on CBS calcified in my brain for years but this is an invigorating alternative perspective - and O'Riley doesn't skip over any sections like Lenny did, near as I can tell.

imagine memorising this whole piece, must take ages of practice.

[stanochocki]

A very good rendition and interpretation of this piece. Thank for posting.

[JebBushHimself]

Where can I find a full score (strings, band, and piano included)?

[JazzKeyboardist]

Cool.. Musicians should learn the last eight bars in all keys for their jazz improvisations

[asianguy]

I forgot it was in concert pitch so I was wondering why the clarinet solo looked like that

[newgeorge]

It's an excellent performance! Who is playing please?

[tinyhawk]

12:20 for all those people trying to find “except 1” for the etudes

[brianmahony]

Hi... I was wondering which part of the first part of the sheet music is the part in the beginning that the clarinet plays...im not familiar enough with sheet music to be able to tell myself lol

[bjornviir]

its not super hard, just ending with tons of notes in just a handful of tough bars takes tons of repeating to get hang of....i learned the piece in 3 years but i wasn't that advanced. inspired me to take up piano.

[narelleyork]

Desperately wanting to find a 5 -6 minute cut down for piano/orchestra score - based on the original score / not simplified for HSC ensemble performance. Can anyone help where to go to purchase? Cheers Narelle

[TS_Mind_Swept]

not the best way to change music pages, but it worked :p would have liked them to be a little bigger because they were kind of small on my phone, but I could just barely make out the notes, I lost my place quite a bit though. don't think that had anything directly to do with the size, but its a possibility.

[JohnJesensky]

Disagree with so many of the musical decisions made in this performance, but still think they did a hell of a job!

[lawrence]

Where did you get the score with reduced orchestra?

[FeonaLeeJones]

Where is the ultimate climax in the piece?
