Product Description

A delightfully rich arrangement of one of George Gershwin's most famous tunes, from his musical Porgy and Bess. Arranged for low female voice in C minor with strings (violin I, violin II, viola, and cello) suitable for quartet or string orchestra. String parts are confined to first position with the exception of three high Db in first violin and a brief first violin solo (up to E). Includes a full score and all parts.

Arranged at the request of Elizabeth Anne Mall and the Kansas Community Chamber Orchestra. A recording is available at https://soundcloud.com/josephhasper/summer-time-c-minor

Porgy and Bess is probably the most famous and most successful American opera from the twentieth century. Based on DuBose Heywards novel, Porgy, and the play that was adapted from it by Heyward and his wife Dorothy, it has long been considered the crowning achievement in the stellar careers of all of the authors. Since its debut in 1935, the story of the crippled beggar transformed by his unexpected and improbable love for Bess, has been performed all over the world by theater and opera companies.
