Two
American musical giants of the 20th century, together in the same
collection. George Gershwin (1898-1937) and Leonard Bernstein
(1918-1990) left behind a monumental work, covering a vast musical
spectrum, from popular musicals and jazz masterpieces to symphonic music
and concertos. In this Emi-Classics BoxSet you will find complete works
like "Rhapsody in Blue", "Porgy and Bess", "West Side Story" and
others, but also pieces like "Cuban Overture", "Candide Overture",
"Fancy Free" and more samples of less known compositions of Gershwin's
and Bernstein's music.
George Gershwin (September 26, 1898 � July
11, 1937) was an American composer and pianist. Gershwin's compositions
spanned both popular and classical genres, and his most popular melodies
are widely known. He wrote most of his vocal and theatrical works,
including more than a dozen Broadway shows, in collaboration with his
elder brother, lyricist Ira Gershwin. George Gershwin composed music for
both Broadway and the classical concert hall, as well as popular songs
that brought his work to an even wider public. His compositions have
been used in numerous films and on television, and many became jazz
standards recorded in numerous variations. Countless singers and
musicians have recorded Gershwin songs.

Leonard
Bernstein (August 25, 1918 � October 14, 1990) was an American
conductor, composer, author, music lecturer and pianist. He was among
the first conductors born and educated in the United States of America
to receive worldwide acclaim. According to The New York Times, he was
"one of the most prodigiously talented and successful musicians in
American history." He was probably best known to the public as the
longtime music director of the New York Philharmonic, for conducting
concerts by many of the world's leading orchestras, and for writing the
music for West Side Story, as well as Candide, Wonderful Town, and On
the Town. Bernstein was the first conductor to give numerous television
lectures on classical music, starting in 1954 until his death. He was a
skilled pianist, often conducting and playing piano concertos at the
same time. As a composer he also wrote symphonies and other concert
music, but most of his fame as a composer during his lifetime was based
on the tremendous success of West Side Story.
