Notes & Reviews

The use of the Disklavier and digital editing give Gershwin's piano roles a perfect, but not overdone, quality that is crisp and enjoyable. The echo effects are genuine, the auditorium providing the acoustics, and giving the instrument added richness.
- Joshua Lambert, 09/13/1996, USA

Full title is: Gershwin Plays Gershwin: The Piano Rolls

Imagine hearing George Gershwin play his own compositions in pristine sound! Pianist/scholar Artis Wodehouse transferred the rarest and most desirable of the over 130 piano rolls Gershwin made for player piano to the Yamaha Disklavier, which reproduced Gershwin's own performances on a 9-foot concert grand (or, in the case of American in Paris, two concert grands!).
