Exotic flavours and sultry rhythms from the masterly pen of George Gershwin.One of Gershwin's most exciting orchestral compositions, the Cuban Overture was inspired by a holiday to Havana in 1932. Dominated by lively Caribbean Salsa rhythms and Cuban percussion, it's a real work-out and a thrilling concert item; you can almost taste the rum and feel the sun on your back.
