An American in Paris' werd geïnspireerd door Gershwins Europese reis in 1928. Hij noemde het werk eenrapsodisch ballet en omschreef het als programmamuziek in impressionistische stijl. Gershwin wilde nietsbepaalds beschrijven, maar eerder suggereren en de fantasie van de luisteraar de vrije teugel geven. Deblues drukt het heimwee uit van de eenzame Amerikaan in de Lichtstad. De drukke Parijse boulevards wordengesuggereerd door de taxitoeters in diverse tonen.
An American in Paris' was inspired by a trip to Europe in 1928. Gershwin called it a 'rhapsodic ballet'in the impressionistic style. The composer did not want to describe but rather to suggest and appeal to thelistener's fantasy. The blues expresses the spleen of an American who is rather solitary in the French capital. The motor horns evoke the hectic traffic on the Parisian boulevards. Gershwin composed this work in differenthotel rooms in Paris, London and Vienna.
An American in Paris' est inspiré par le voyage que Gershwin effectue en Europe en 1928. Il désigne luimêmecette oeuvre comme un 'ballet rhapsodique' et de la musique à programme dans le style impressionniste. Gershwin n'a pas voulu d'écrire mais plutôt suggérer et faire appel à l'imagination de l'auditeur. Le'blues' évoque le mal du pays qu'éprouve un Américain solitaire dans la 'Ville Lumière'. Les claxons évoquentle trafic intense des boulevards parisiens.
An American in Paris' entstand 1928 während Gershwins Europareise. Er nennte das Werk ein rhapsodischesBallett und bestimmte es als Programmusik im impressionistischen Stil. Der Komponist hatte nichtdie Absicht etwas bestimmtes zu beschreiben, sondern er wollte vielmehr suggerieren und die Fantasie derZuhörer freien Lauf lassen. Der Blues drückt das Heimweh des einsamen Amerikaners in Paris aus.
