As many of you know, Rhapsody in Blue is one of George Gershwin's most famous and iconic pieces of music history, if not, of all time! But in case you guys don't know, there are actually 3 different versions of the same piece Gershwin wrote.
These 3 versions include: The original Jazz Band 1924 version, 1927 version, and the most iconic well-known full symphony orchestra 1942 version that everyone plays nowadays. Not only that, but in the 1942 version, the extended part of the Shuffle Theme, as well as the extended Piano Cadenzas have been cut for duration time.

Since this public domain piece itself has turned 100 this year, in honor of Gershwin's Legacy, I've put together a special arrangement written for a full orchestra, and it even includes tons of heavy influences taken mostly from the 1924 version, even taking influences from different live performances that are inspired.
These changes include the following:
Adding back in the extended shuffle theme and Piano Cadenzas
Added a Harp Part to make the arrangement a little Phil Spitalny Hour Of Charm-esque flavor to it.
Brought back in the Bari Sax and Orchestral Piano parts, even though they sort of look different from the original score.
Swapped a few solo/soli sections here and there while still keeping some of the 1924/42 elements (for instance the 2 Violin Soli, or Low Instruments Soli) in tact.

You obviously get the idea.

A huge thanks to one of my newest and closest friends who also have arranging experiences "Darren Rodney" for helping me put this incredible arrangement together!

This episode features Russell Berman, a DAAD alumnus, shared his experiences of receiving DAAD funding twice: a post-BA year in Munich in 1972 and a dissertation fellowship from 1977 to 1979. These scholarships significantly influenced his career, steering him towards German Studies. His dissertation focused on literary criticism in the mass press from the late 19th to early 20th century. Berman emphasized the transformative impact of studying abroad, advising young scholars to consider turning their post-BA year into an MA for career advancement. He highlighted the importance of international exchange for gaining diverse perspectives and building networks.

MIXTAPE ON THE WAY

A comedy Podcast with Boston accents. Each week Tara, Sean and Joe bring you laughs, whether they are remembering the 80s, making pop culture references or bringing you weird stories.

I meet many students, researchers and other professionals during my travels representing the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD). They come from diverse backgrounds, and their careers and fields of interest span a wide range of subjects, but they all love Germany. Our most memorable conversations happen during coffee breaks when I hear personal stories and learn about their unique experiences. I decided to share these coffee talks via a podcast, so that the work and experiences of our DAAD Ambassadors and other inspiring individuals with a German connection reach you, wherever you are. Happy listening!
 
This podcast is a side project to my daily work as the DAAD representative for the Western region of the United States. This podcast is created, hosted, and edited by me. Opinions voiced in interviews are my own. If you want to know more about the study, research, and funding opportunities in Germany, visit www.daad.org
