"From Gershwin to Garland: A Musical Journey with Richard Glazier" begins with the opening bars of George Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue. From there, pianist Richard Glazier takes us in a musical time machine through the Golden Age of American Popular Song. Glazier's warm, witty and fascinating inside stories accompany the glorious music.

From the keyboard of a gorgeous Steinway concert grand, with portraits of his musical heroes looking over his shoulders, Glazier tells his stories of George & Ira Gershwin, composer Johnny Green, the great opera star Camilla Williams, composer Hugh Martin, and Judy Garland, whose performance in the file "Girl Crazy" sparked Glazier's interest in this music. The show's climax is the complete solo piano version of Rhapsody in Blue.
