Gershwin and Bernstein: Manhattan to Montmarte

Step right up, music lovers, because Jacobson and Brown are taking us on a whirlwind tour from the bustling streets of Manhattan to the picturesque cafes of Montmartre with their latest album. From the irresistible melodies of George Gershwin to the jazzy rhythms of Leonard Bernstein, this dynamic duo effortlessly blends the best of American and French musical traditions. The album kicks off with a toe-tapping rendition of Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue," perfectly capturing the frenetic energy of the Big Apple. As the piano cascades through dizzying runs and the brass section sizzles with sass, you can practically smell the hot dogs and hear the honking of yellow cabs. But don't get too comfortable in the concrete jungle, because before you know it, Jacobson and Brown whisk you away to the charming streets of Montmartre with Bernstein's "Candide Overture." The accordion weaves its way through the jaunty melody, conjuring visions of beret-clad artists painting en plein air and lovers strolling along the Seine. Overall, "Manhattan To Montmartre" is a delightful romp through two of the world's most iconic cities, filled with lush harmonies, toe-tapping rhythms, and a healthy dose of joie de vivre. So grab a croissant, pour yourself a glass of wine, and let Jacobson and Brown transport you to a musical paradise where anything is possible.
