Classic Gershwin at the 1901 Arts Club

Wednesday 4 December, 7:30 PM - 9:30 PM

- £25

Viv McLean – piano

Susan Porrett – narrator

Our “wonderful” ‘Classic Gershwin’ weaves the vibrant music of the ever-popular composer George Gershwin with his fascinating life story from birth in the colourful, teeming New York of 1898 to his tragically early death in 1937.

With prize-winning pianist and renowned Gershwin interpreter Viv McLean and RSC, National Theatre and TV actress Susan Porrett as narrator, this mixed-genre concert presents an intriguing, eclectic mix of Gershwin’s music from the much-loved Rhapsody in Blue, I got Rhythm Variations, The Man I Love and Swanee to the rarely-played Three Preludes.

This concert is in support of the ENO Benevolent Fund

 

a glorious and intriguing celebration of Gershwin’s life and music

A wonderful show!
