The premier was given in Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall on April 16 1991. It is a song cycle in the American cabaret tradition written in reaction to Schubert's Die Winterreise (where a woman struggles to get over a devastating love affair). The songbook also features complete lyrics and a separate lyric section notes on December Songs by Bernard Jacobson and a bio of composer Maury Yeston.

Part of the popular ‘Top Ten’ series this collection contains ten carefully selected pieces in the jazz style. There is such variety within the genre we call 'jazz' it seems almost impossible to do itjustice in just ten songs but we've given it our best shot. We've unforgettable standards like Duke Ellington's 'Take The A Train' and 'Fly Me To The Moon' as popularised by Frank Sinatra; elegant tunes fromthe 1930s such as 'The Way You Look Tonight' and 'The Very Thought Of You'; classic numbers from the late 50s and early 60s 'So What' and 'Cantaloupe Island' - and we make no apology forstretching the jazz definition to accommodate the gorgeous 'Girl From Ipanema'! Some of the pieces are arranged for Piano and Voice; others are purely instrumental but every one possesses that special somethingthat has earned it a place in our collection and indeed in the heads and hearts of countless jazz lovers around the world. Each piece in The Top Ten Jazz Songs To Play On Piano is accompanied byinteresting background notes to give you that extra bit of insight.

Selections from the famous opera by George and Ira Gershwin from the novel 'Porgy' by DuBose Heyward. George and Ira Gershwin joined DuBose Heyward in Charleston to write the opera which had been germinating in George's imagination for several years. Porgy and Bess was George Gershwin's longest and most ambitious creation but it was not truly successful during his lifetime. Some of the songs had achieved popularity before Gershwin's death in 1937 but the work earned real approval and favor only after the 1940 Theater Guild presentation of a slightly revised version. For years it was performed more frequently in Europe where it was considered a true American opera than in America.
