'Some of Gershwin's finest inspirations have not as yet been either published or publicly performed. It is probable that the production of his twenty-four preludes ... will award him a still higher rank in the army of contemporarycomposers.' In 1925 an admirer thus heralded George Gershwin's ambitious project in Vanity Fair namely to compose preludes in all keys as Bach and Chopin had done before. On 4 December of the following year the composerpublicly performed five of these pieces. However the extremely busy darling of Broadway only published the famous three Preludes for Piano (1927) during his lifetime. Henle now presents them for the first time in astate-of-the-art Urtext edition.
