Description

"Some of Gershwin��s finest inspirations have not as yet been either published or publicly performed. It is probable that the production of his twenty-four preludes �� will award him a still higher rank in the army of contemporary composers.�� In 1925, an admirer thus heralded George Gershwin��s ambitious project in Vanity Fair, namely to compose preludes in allkeys as Bach and Chopin had done before. On 4 December of the following year, the composer publicly performed five of these pieces. However, th e extremely busy darling of Broadway only published the famous three Preludes for Piano (1927) during his lifetime. Henle are now proud to present them for the first time in a state-of-the-art Urtext edition.
Edited by Norbert Gertsch with fingering by Andreas Boyde.
