Bañagale, Ryan Raul,
Arranging Gershwin : Rhapsody in blue and the creation of an American icon / Ryan Banagale. - 224 pages : illustrations
Includes bibliographical references and index.
In 'Arranging Gershwin', author Ryan Banagale approaches George Gershwin's iconic piece 'Rhapsody in Blue' not as a composition but as an arrangement - a status it has in many ways held since its inception in 1924, yet one unconsidered until now. Shifting emphasis away from the notion of the Rhapsody as a static work by a single composer, Banagale posits a broad vision of the piece that acknowledges the efforts of a variety of collaboratorswho shaped the Rhapsody as we know it today.
