SUMMARY:PAUL LAY TRIO: Rhapsody in Blue
DESCRIPTION:Pianist Paul Lay and his trio revisit Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue on Friday 19 March 2027 at 8 pm in the CMD auditorium in Soissons, with tickets from €5 to €20.\nOn Friday 19 March 2027 at 8 pm, I am taking you to the CMD auditorium on allée Claude Debussy in Soissons for a jazz concert built around Gershwin.\n\nMarking the centenary of the premiere of Rhapsody in Blue, celebrated in 2024, pianist Paul Lay explores the many sides of a work the presentation calls innovative. With his trio, he replays the 1942 version in his own way, adding three Gershwin pieces arranged and orchestrated for this line-up: Summertime, Nice work if you can get it and It ain't necessarily so.\n\nPaul Lay is on piano, Donald Kontomanou on drums and Clemens Van der Feen on bass. The announced programme pairs the Rhapsody with standards.\n\nThe concert is organised by the town of Soissons (CMD). Tickets cost €5 to €20 through the town's online box office. For any question, the CMD answers on +33 3 23 59 10 12 or at cmd@agglo-soissonnais.com.\nDate: Friday 19 March 2027 at 8 pm. Venue: CMD auditorium, 9 allée Claude Debussy, 02200 Soissons.

Contact: +33 3 23 59 10 12, cmd@agglo-soissonnais.com.\nI confess the only rhapsody I have mastered is the one my kettle plays every morning. Here, a pianist, a drummer and a bass player take on Gershwin in their own way, with no symphony orchestra in sight. I suggest you rehearse Summertime in the shower, just for the pleasure of recognising it.\nPaul Lay Trio in Soissons: Rhapsody in Blue, 19 March 2027\nPaul Lay Trio: Rhapsody in Blue, at the CMD in Soissons on 19 March 2027 at 8 pm: Gershwin reimagined as jazz by Paul Lay's trio, tickets €5 to €20.\nWhen does the Paul Lay Trio play in Soissons?\nOn Friday 19 March 2027 at 8 pm, in the CMD auditorium, 9 allée Claude Debussy.\nWhat is on the programme?\nGershwin's Rhapsody in Blue in its 1942 version, reworked by the trio, plus Summertime, Nice work if you can get it and It ain't necessarily so.\nWho are the musicians?\nPaul Lay on piano, Donald Kontomanou on drums and Clemens Van der Feen on bass.\nHow much are tickets?\nFrom €5 to €20, through the town of Soissons online box office.
