• John Wilson and 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. Recorded live at the Royal Albert Hall in 2015, 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. • Following their extraordinary debut at the BBC Proms in 2009, John Wilson and his orchestra have established a well-earned reputation as THE modern interpreters of the Hollywood musical, regularly garnering rave reviews for their live performances at the Proms and around the UK, as well as their recordings. For this next release, Warner Classics is proud to present Gershwin in Hollywood, recorded live at the Royal Albert Hall, at the culmination of this extraordinary orchestra’s sell-out UK tour in 2015. • Wilson leads his handpicked ensemble of virtuoso players from orchestras across Europe in this rousing concert recording of the Gershwins’ legendary hits with guest star singers, the ever-popular Matt Ford and leading lady Louise Dearman (Evita & Wicked). • It includes well-known Gershwin favourites of the American Songbook, such as How Long Has This Been Going On?, The Man I Love, ’S Wonderful and They Can’t Take That Away From Me, as well as rarely recorded gems like Slap That Bass, Treat Me Rough, and the majestic orchestral Overture from the film Rhapsody in Blue. With superb vocals and the rich orchestral sound so evocative of Hollywood’s Golden Age, all under the direction of John Wilson, this album captures the thrilling atmosphere of a night to remember. • John Wilson says “Irving Berlin famously remarked 'we were all pretty good songwriters but George was something else: he was a composer'.
