Despite being very busy with three different Broadway musicals, Gershwin was able to complete the 'Concerto in F' for Piano and Orchestra in November 10, 1925. It was commissioned by the American conductor Walter Damrosch who conducted the premiere in Carnegie Hall later that year featuring the composer as the soloist. The 'Concerto in F' shows considerable development in Gershwin's compositional technique, particularly because he orchestrated the entire work himself. Argentine arranger Martin Jorge transcribed the complete concerto for piano with accompaniment of a Symphonic Wind Orchestra.

George and Ira Gershwin's famous tune Someone to Watch Over Me has been given a new voice in this arrangement for treble voices. Originally written for the musical Oh, Kay as an up-tempo vocal solo, this arrangement keeps the slow, ballad-like style that has been adopted as the preferred way to perform the piece. While the melody has remained untouched, for the most part, the piano accompaniment and vocal harmonies are completely new, but play homage to the overall aura that was originally captured almost 100 years ago.
