George Gershwin | Promenade - Walking The Dog (1937) I Sebastian Manz & Friends

[@loishtari3824]

Anyone with a dog will understand this piece. Walking along, getting distracted by interesting smells (and other distractions) but then returning to main theme of walkies. Great!

[@JorgeLopez-fu9lb]

the tone of the clarinet is out of this world. I can't get over how great he sounds.

[@aeryn6275]

The dog running across is just the cherry on top!!

[@samgraham7705]

I love that part!!

[@samgraham7705]

If a dog could compose music, this would be it's favourite piece😊❤

[@stevehinnenkamp5625]

Heaven! I'll get a dog fast if it's anything like this! Thank you, all you 1st class players who portray humanity, humor, in the joy of making superb music.❤

7th of April This was wonderful and beautifully played.

[@brianlove1373]

Geez I love when the strings take over at 1:34 and then the piano interplay at 1:39 - what a beautiful interpretation of a wonderful Gershwin piece.

[@rosies3622]

yes! :)

[@samgraham7705]

Yes 1:34 is stunning 😊

[@elwelldavid9832]

One of the best interpretations ever of this magnificent Gershwin composition. Thank you for sharing!!!

[@jpstenino]

Walking the Dog is one of many musical numbers written in 1937 by George Gershwin for the Fred Astaire - Ginger Rogers film score for Shall We Dance. In the film, the music accompanies a sequence of walking a dog on board a luxury liner. In 1960, the sequence was published as "Promenade".

[@carltrotter7622]

jpstenino every time I hear it I picture Astaire following Rogers up and down the ship’s deck before she eventually gives in.

[@Mick-r4c]

They look as though they’re really enjoying playing this piece.

[@excalibur1812]

German clarinetists have the most beautiful tones. I can now add this to my favorite clarinetists which include Karl Leister and Sabine Mayer. BRAVO!

[@andyhowlett2231]

I've never heard this piece sound so good. Just the right lightness and a great, fresh acoustic. Lovely!

[@tunkyslug]

Heard this on Classic FM this morning and had to seek it out. 😊👏🏻

[@paulwilliams8389]

Same thing happened to me this morning - looked at the playlist to find what it was called!

[@jeremiahnoar7504]

The superior arrangement all the way down to the “American in Paris” reference and the doggy surprise!

[@hannahbell1612]

I heard this on classical 101 and had to look it up again! I loved it 🤩 for some reason it cracks me up laughing when I think of someone walking their dog to this hehe

[@beverlyorton7612]

THANK YOU so much for cheering me during the Pandemic Lockdown! I have played it countless times and forwarded it to many friends. Marvellous!

[@rosies3622]

yes! Doesn't it? And right now we need something to cheer us in this world. :) Woof! Woof!

[@brucekuehn4031]

In some places, the only people allowed outside have been those walking their dogs so it seems very fitting. Don’t forget, these light-hearted Fred and Ginger movies were made during the Great Depression which was no picnic either. People flocked to the theaters to watch rich people in fancy clothes doing silly things on the big screen.

[@a.grover4797]

.Your arrangement incorporates at least one melodic hint of other Gershwin pieces. I heard An American in Paris. How many altogether? Fun.

[@sebastianmanz1344]

Hi Ava, you're right. At the end I quote "An American in Paris". My intension for this is the fact that the protagonists of the (original) movie "Shall we dance" (for which the song was composed) with Astaire & Rogers came by ship from Paris back to NYC. :-) There's also another melodic hint at 02:15 . Can you recognize it?
