KICKING THE CLOUDS AWAY, Gershwin At the Piano.
This CD features 19 selection all hand played by Gershwin on the Duo-Art Reproducing Piano, including the 2 piano version of the entire Rhapsody In Blue played AND accompanied by the composer himself.
The reproducing pianos of the early 20th century came amazingly close to being able to exactly re-create the exact playing stye and technique of the recording pianist. This is as close as one can get to hearing Gershwin himself playing the piano for a digital quality recording.
