Uri Caine Ensemble plays nine famous songs written by George Gershwin and Ira Gershwin. Caine names the album after Gershwin’s masterpiece "Rhapsody in Blue"—as the centerpiece of his new Gershwin interpretations. Caine and Gershwin are connected not only though Jewish East European origin of their families but also through New York City.[6]
