So glad to have this musical program back in my collection. Lost the original CD in a house fire...now the digital version I just bought is backed up safely for the future.

The Birth of Rhapsody in Blue: Paul Whiteman's Historic Aeolian Hall Concert of 1924

One would be hard pressed to think of a musical event about which more has been written than Paul Whiteman's launching of Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue. --Maurice Peress

So glad to have this musical program back in my collection. Lost the original CD in a house fire...now the digital version I just bought is backed up safely for the future.

Peress and his musicians--and Whiteman and his musicians--had a marvelous time with this music. That's not to say that Yes, We Have No Bananas is quite on the order of Pomp and Circumstance. But here they coexist happily, side by side. Which raises the most pressing question that results from an evening of enjoying this reconstructed concert: Why can't we com­bine disparate types of music this im­aginatively on concert programs today?
--Ovation Magazine
