Gershwin: Songbook - Enrico Fagnoni - Audio CD (Arrives in 50 days)

George Gershwin (1898-1937, born Jacob Bruskin Gershowitz, of Jewish-Ukraine origin) was an American composer and pianist whose compositions span both popular and classical genres, fusing the two in a unique and unprecedented way. In his “Songbook for Piano” Gershwin presented piano solo arrangements of 18 of his most famous songs, including The Man I Love, Fascinating Rhythm, Swanee, Do It Again and I Got Rhythm.

In this new recording Italian pianist Enrico Fagnoni plays the complete Songbook for piano by Gershwin, as well as his own arrangement of the same 18 songs, maintaining the original style but adding from his own vast experience of both a classical and jazz pianist, a fascinating comparison!
