That opening glissando of the clarinet always gives me the chills

The greatest work Gershwin ever wrote for piano. Fantastic performance

[@The_DuMont_Network]

I think that after all these years, I have found a new favorite rendition of my favorite piece! For years and years I have enjoyed Oscar Levant and Eugene Ormandy's recording, but this performance really shines. Perfect attack and decay of every note, and the delicacy of Daniel V's piano technique is absolutely perfect. Not a note is slurred, his attention to the detail and emotion is - well, I am out of superlatives. And let's face it - If it ain't played on a Steinway, it ain't played! Simply Wonderful!

Look for Lola Astanova’s version. I think you’ll enjoy it.

My favorite rendition!

[@tabijah]

Amazing concert. Full of bravura, energy and fireworks. This interpretation really captures the "blues" feeling of Gershwin's masterpiece.

[@stephenhosmer9444]

Truly one of the great pieces ever written for the concert hall. I always get a thrill listening to the cacophony of sounds both shrill and atonal. It is altogether a marvelous work of art. Audiences at one time might have been totally shocked by the discordant sounds blaring at them.

Absolutely gripping and beautiful

Bravo !

[@briananderson8428]

Good Lord! I almost levitated from my chair at the clarinet opening! Bravo!!!!

[@fmg5301]

There are many, many versions and each listener values one or the other according to his knowledge and feelings, so there is no "best" version for everybody. So far, this one is the one I've enjoyed most.

[@thomasrastocky3871]

If you haven’t seen it already, look for Lola Astanova‘s version. I’m sure you will enjoy it.

A truly riveting dynamic performance

[@DigitalDiscusVideo]

The brilliant 1924 arrangement of "Rhapsody in Blue" was written by the great Ferde Grofé (1892-1972)... who would later go on to compose the gorgeous "Grand Canyon Suite."

[@1973asdf]

perfect

[@obod2001]

Is a 1946 version for full orchestra

[@Stopdance]

woooooow Nice

[@Alcuin611]

Very Springly.

[@douglasyiuchinglok307]

What are the differences between 1924 and 1942 Grofé Version?

[@vnukowski]

Great question. The 1924 version was scored for brass and percussion, while the 1942 was scored for full orchestra, both by Grofé. The 1942 version has been the most popular choice for decades, but many artists are now returning to the 1924 jazz band scoring, finding it more dynamic and playful.
