KDFC’s “The State of The Arts” features the new Gershwin & Kern recording and interviews ASQ’s own Zak Grafilo. Take a listen:
From KDFC:
“The latest CD by the Alexander String Quartet pairs two kings of the American popular song: George Gershwin and Jerome Kern. A suite of tunes from Porgy and Bess, which began on the operatic stage and were adapted by Jascha Heifetz for violin and piano, underwent one more arrangement (this time by composer Carl Davis) pairing the quartet with their frequent collaborator, clarinetist Joan Enric Lluna. And six familiar songs by Kern from musicals and films get an unfamiliar treatment by the composer himself.”
