The program also included selections from Porgy and Bess, Cuban Overture, and more of George and Ira Gershwin’s most beloved songs, performed by Tony Award nominee Montego Glover (Broadway’s Memphis, Into the Woods, Hamilton, and more).

"The Gershwin brothers, two of New York's most famous sons, left an indelible mark on the American songbook,” said New York Pops Music Director and Conductor Steven Reineke. “We are so thrilled to celebrate their legacy and mark the centennial anniversary of George Gershwin's most famous composition, Rhapsody in Blue. Long-time New York Pops pianist, the incomparable Lee Musiker, will bring his unique jazz perspective to the Rhapsody, and Tony-Award nominee, Montego Glover, will lend her sultry and powerful voice to some of our favorite Gershwin love songs just in time for Valentines Day.”
