This weekend, Rhapsody in Blue returns to The Soraya just as Gershwin first imagined it in 1924—with all the energy of his original jazz band version. Led by conductor Christopher Rountree (@orionrountree), who, as LA Times notes, ‘could probably get an audience to dance to the slowest movement Shostakovich ever wrote.’ ✨ 🎹 At the piano, Conrad Tao (@conradtao) brings Gershwin’s notes to shimmering life, while the Grammy-nominated Clayton-Hamilton Jazz Orchestra (@johnclaytonjazz) captures the era’s swing and sparkle to close out the night. 🎺 It’s the perfect way to kick off the holiday celebrations —step back in time with us and get your tickets now at the 🔗 in BIO! We’ll see you here 😉 📸 Photo Credit: Luis Luque, Luque Photography @luquephotographyevents #csunengaged #matadorpride #rhapsodyinblue #classical #jazz #claytonhamilton #conradtao #christopherrountree
