The Longines Symphonette was a pre-recorded classical music program broadcast nightly on many Mutual stations from 1943 to 1949. It then moved to CBS where it was heard Sundays at 2pm from 1949 to 1957. The initial conductor was Macklin Marrow, followed for most of the run by Michel Piastro, one-time concert master of the New York Philharmonic. Frank Knight was the program's announcer. The introductory theme was the final movement of Beethoven's 5th Symphony.

Thanks to Sony, its Great Performances series now includes a classic that many will remember vividly - due in great part to its iconic cover photograph - and which some will recall fondly as their first introduction to Gershwin’s entertaining work.

George Gershwin is an American legend and represents the first not-so-secret passageway between jazz and classical worlds. His songs and Porgy and Bess are clearly influenced by the jazz idiom but stand on the popular music side of the passageway. The Three Preludes for Piano, Rhapsody in Blue, and An American in Paris ARE the passageway, and this disc presents the latter two in performances by Erich Kunzel and the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra on this splendid Telarc disc from 1981. Rhapsody in Blue is one of Gershwin’s signature compositions
