“There is something about music that keeps its distance even at the moment that it engulfs us. It is at the same time outside and away from us and inside and part of us. In one sense it dwarfs us, and in another we master it. We are led on and on, and yet in some strange way we never lose control.” -Aaron Copland

Percy Grainger
Fantasy on Gershwin’s Porgy and BessMarc-André Hamelin and Piers Lane, pianos (live)
Grainger was a prolific transcriber and elaborator of the music of others, after the Romantic tradition begun by Liszt in his fantasies and paraphrases. He was particularly fond of Gershwin, and produced piano arrangements of several of his songs—Grainger’s concert transcription of “The Man I Love” remains popular today.
