For Piano and Orchestra. Composed by George Gershwin. Arranged by Martin Jorge. Baton Music instrumental series. For Piano and Orchestra. Full score. Baton Music #BM797-SCORE. Published by Baton Music (BF.BM797-SCORE).

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.
