Step into a world of smoky jazz, sultry melodies, and symphonic swing as we celebrate the genius of George Gershwin!

​

From the sparkle of Broadway to the soul of early American opera, this concert features solo performances that highlight Gershwin's signature blend of classical flair and jazz rhythms - culminating in a semi-staged performance of Blue Monday, his bold and rarely heard one-act opera of love, betrayal, and blues in Harlem.

​

Gershwin like you've never heard him - live, local, and full of heart!

When: August 8, 2025, at 7:30 p.m.

Where: The Cider Gallery
