We're gonna take you to the streets of New York City for a piece that's inspired by a couple of my favourite artists. First there's the illustrator Al Hirschfeld, who's been drawing celebrities and Broadway stars for most of the 20th century. And then there's composer, songwriter George Gershwin, who took jazz off the streets, dressed her up, and took her to the concert hall. My friend Ralph Grierson plays piano on this next number. And it all starts with a single slinky note on a clarinet, and a simple line on a piece of paper.
