Event overview

What this event is about

Experience Rhapsody in Blue like never before! In a groundbreaking performance, the Austin Symphony Orchestra will bring George Gershwin himself to the stage—through the power of Steinway & Sons' Spirio | r technology. This state-of-the-art piano system will perform Gershwin’s own recorded keystrokes in perfect synchronization with the orchestra, allowing audiences to hear Rhapsody in Blue as Gershwin originally played it. This extraordinary evening, sponsored by the Bancroft Initiative, also features American Ballads by Morton Gould, Ives’ Symphony No. 1, and Copland’s Rodeo: Four Dance Episodes, all enhanced by Westwater Arts’ stunning multimedia visuals. Don’t miss this fusion of history and innovation—where Gershwin’s own touch meets the brilliance of your Austin Symphony Orchestra!
