This jazz composition makes me think of my old hometown of NYC during 1924 when George Gershwin composed it. The beginning reminds me of sunrise over Midtown Manhattan with people waking up and having breakfast and going to work. 😊

I love Paul Whiteman, George Gershwin and Rhapsody in Blue!

It sounds like klezmer music because klezmer clarinetists use glissandos a Not an easy technique to master, but SO impressive ❤
