America, Vol. 2: George Gershwin, from Broadway to the Concert Hall


The AMERICA collection provides a glimpse into 20th century American music. With Gospel, Blues and Jazz, black people gave the world the foundations on which most types of Western music - Rhythm & Blues, Soul Music, Rock ‘n’ Roll, Funk, Rap - were to be built. Each of our (2 CD) anthologies gets to the very heart of these genres and explains their origins, their rationale and their evolution.

La collection AMERICA est une fenêtre ouverte sur la musique américaine du XXe siècle. Avec le Gospel, le Blues et le Jazz, le peuple noir offrait au monde le socle à partir duquel allait s’édifier la plupart des genres de la musique occidentale : Rhythm & Blues, Soul Music, Rock ‘n’ Roll, Funk, Rap… Chacune de nos anthologies (de 2 disques) permet de pénétrer au cœur de toutes ces musiques, d’en appréhender l’origine, la raison d’être et l’évolution.
