The John Wilson Orchestra follow up their acclaimed Cole Porter in Hollywood album with this tribute to America’s iconic songsmith team — the Brothers Gershwin — and their successes for the silver screen. The film tunes George and Ira wrote didn’t just serve their cinematic vehicles; they swiftly became standards in their own right. Recorded live at the Royal Albert Hall in 2015, the culmination of their successful thirteen-date 2015 national concert tour Gershwin In Hollywood reminds us not only of the genius that were the Gershwin, but also the impeccable ability of the John Wilson Orchestra to transport us seamlessly to the golden age of the silver screen.
