RARE AND EXCLUSIVE The Complete George Gershwin - Porgy & Bess - Bethlehem Records 3BP-1,  3 LP  Records: Mel Torme, Frances Faye, The Duke Ellington Orchestra & Ross Garcia Orchestra. Porgy and Bess is an English-language opera composed in 1934 by George Gershwin, with a libretto written by DuBose Heyward and Ira Gershwin from Heyward's novel Porgy and later play of the same title. Porgy and Bess was first performed in New York City on September 30, 1935 and featured an entire cast of classically trained African-American singers—a daring artistic choice at the time. After an initially unpopular public reception. Some of the songs in the opera, such as "Summertime" became popular and frequently recorded songs. In the late 20th and early 21st centuries, the trend has been towards reproducing a greater fidelity to Gershwin's original intentions although other smaller-scale productions continued to be mounted. A complete version of the score was released in 1976; since then, it has been recorded several times. This amazing 3 LPs delux set, The Complete George Gershwin PORGY and BESS, has become one of the most wanted musical recordings in serious LP original recordings. Now is your turn to open the sealed black box and start enjoying this master work by the great George Gershwin.
