In 1923, the American conductor Paul Whiteman commissioned Gershwin to compose "a large work in the jazz idiom" for an all-American concert.  The result was Rhapsody in Blue which, performed at NY’s Aeolian Hall, made Gershwin famous overnight. "It was  the coming of jazz into the concert hall."

Raul’s signature piece: Rhapsody in Blue

No one of our concert pianists, I venture to say, interprets Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue in as dazzling a manner as Raul Sunico does. A little background on the piece might make the reader appreciate this assumption...
