Music & Nightlife | Herbie Hancock will 'Swing' Gershwin with SSO | Seattle Times Newspaper

When composer George Gershwin played the world premiere of "Rhapsody in Blue," he hadn't even finished all the piano parts.
So he improvised them.
To this day, no one knows precisely what Gershwin played that afternoon of Feb. 12, 1924, at New York's Aeolian Hall.
In some ways, then, it makes perfect sense that another improviser, jazz pianist Herbie Hancock, is performing the piece with the Seattle Symphony Orchestra. While Hancock has no intention of adding anything new to this concert-hall favorite — in fact, Hancock performs it reading from the score — in a phone interview last week, the 14-time Grammy winner explained that he does "swing" parts of it.
