Real Talent Always Shines!

"The music of Gershwin interpreted by the talent of Previn, what more could you ask for? The recording is crisp and with depth which is important in the areas of Finisk's double base solos. Put it on, turn down the lights and just listen...."
Intimate performance

"Andre Previn is probably the most relevant Gershwin performer out there. He captures Gershwin intensity and understands that his music has elements of both academic and jazz music. This is key to really make the performance shine. Gershwin music has been performed by almost any classica piano player and by many orchestras around the world. This new recordings by Previn on piano and David Finck on bass present a joyful and intimate performace that makes you feel like you where listening to the performace inside the studio at the time these were recorded. Its a very enjoyable CD with bold arregements. In a way, these could interpretations that Gershwin himself would enjoy"
'S Wonderful

"This is a marvelous record. Previn and Fink are clearly enjoying themselves and their spontaneity and verve are infectious. The recording is quite natural too. This is loads of fun."
