Porgy and Bess Featuring: I Got Plenty o' Nuttin' / It Ain't Necessarily So / Summertime / Crab Man / Bess, You Is My Woman Now by George Gershwin Concert Band - Sheet Music

By George Gershwin

The music from the timeless masterwork Porgy and Besshas fascinated generation after generation. Oddly enough, at its premiere the critics presented mixed reaction: some calling it the pioneering work of a new folk-opera genre, and others condemning it as merely a succession of hit songs. Fortunately, time has secured its place in history. James Barnes has skillfully crafted a wonderful scoring of I Got Plenty O' Nuttin', It Ain't Necessarily So, Summertime, Crab Man, and Bess, You Is My Woman Now. This is Gershwin at his best! (8:30)

    Porgy and Bess

    Although this is a very nice piece, I was actually looking for the Calvin Custer arrangement and since it wasn't clear who the arranger was, I ended up spending $9.00 for nothing. I am still looking for the score to the Calvin Custer arrangement of Selections from Porgy & Bess.
