GEORGE GERSHWIN CD

(not in stock)

EXCEPTIONAL. Few Italian pianists with a classical background have, as Giuseppe Lupis does, a sincere love, a natural confidence, and an absolute ease with the music of the author of Rhapsody in Blue. It is demonstrated by this recording, all Gershwin, beginning with 18 Songs (transcribed by the composer). Here, in supreme balance is the melancholy and the autumnal tenderness of The Man I Love and Clap yo' Hands; here there are the light sounds and the rhythmic unchaining of the First Prelude (to the usual three, Lupis adds four others, of varying interest, including a fragment). Here are the essential elements, free from Romantic pathos and therefore of the twentieth century, balanced between humor and nostalgia in a selection from Porgy and Bess, in the original piano reduction.

(Alberto Cantu', "Il Giornale," December 28, 2000. Milan, Italy)
