Gershwin Gala, Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia

About the Event

Joy and optimism, American style, seem like perfect ingredients for celebrating the conclusion of this concert season.

The season's finale is entrusted to pianist and conductor William Eddins, who presents a lively anthology of works by George Gershwin, ranging from the timeless favorite Rhapsody in Blue to the Suite from Porgy and Bess, the American composer's masterpiece and the first grand opera written by a North American.
