£56.00Rhapsody In Blue - George Gershwin
George Gershwin (1898-1937) was known as a songwriter, but was interested in writing larger works. In 1922 he was commissioned to write a concerto for piano and orchestra. Rhapsody in Blue is one of his most famous works. This arrangement for band, without piano, is not a recreation of the original, but rather an exploration of many of the themes found in this composition. Clarinets all cross the break, and the 1st trumpet's highest note is G.

Unusually rich in harmony, it was not published in Fillmore's lifetime. He had asked that it be named after his friend and fellow march composer, Karl L. King, if the movie was not produced.
