Is the bridge floating? Mysterious, I like it, Robert. Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue is one of my favorites.

That’s a shot of a virtual golden gate bridge. I love Rhapsody in Blue.

I thought it was golden gate bridge but didn’t want to assume. I have to listen to your other version of Rhapsody in Blue. Hope you’re doing well.

I think I’ll update the post with the 1911 performance by Gershwin. It’s brilliant. I’m fine, thank you for asking. Life is better than it was in 2014 despite the horror show in Washington.

I misspoke, I meant the 1927 version of Rhapsody played by Gershwin. The 1911 recording is something else.

Thanks Teagan. I have a copy of Gershwin performing Rhapsody in Blue. It was made in 1911. Gershwin’s performance of it is worth a listen:
