Gershwin is Marti Webb’s tribute to the music of George Gershwin, featuring interpretations of some of the composer’s most celebrated songs and melodies. Best known for her work in musical theatre, particularly Evita and Tell Me On A Sunday, Webb brings a polished stage-performer style to these classic standards. The arrangements by Ian Hughes give the album a contemporary orchestral feel while remaining faithful to the spirit of Gershwin’s music.

This title appeals primarily to musical theatre enthusiasts, vocal-pop collectors, and fans of the Great American Songbook.
