  • When I heard this being played live on television, I was immediately inspired. Since then, I have learned this piece and started on the roll of very hard pieces. This piece can capture a soul like nothing else can. What do you expect? It's jazz and you can play your heart out.

  • Outstanding !!

  • Just watched this on PBS last Saturday (7/3/10) ... Andrew is superb!

  • I got to see this the day befor at the dress rehersal. They were so amazing and that was such a good experience, especially with the Jersey Boys! I went again this year but it kinda sucked because Glays Knight and Darius Rucker didn't show up. Any who this is a really good version of this song!! Great piano players as well!

  • This is why I miss living in the DC area, so much class, entertainment and culture that cannot be found in the midwest where I unfortunately live now. One day I hope to come back and listen to the NSO again, they are so marvelous, and the fireworks are spectacular!

  • Andrew will be performing with the Billings Symphony Saturday, April 18 - it will be a spectacular performance!

  • Is it possible to hear Gershwin and not smile? He captures the American can- do spirit.

  • von Oeyen just played Beethoven's Emperor Concerto in Little Rock. It was excellent and the audience loved him.

  • Thats just bananas. I have an orgasm of the brain every time I hear this song.

  • It's hard to believe that Kunzel just died a few months later on Sept 1, 2009 of pancreatic cancer. Like Swayze, another very very unfortunate case.
