"Spanned: A Musical Journey Across Time and Places" George Gershwin, an influential American composer and pianist from 1898 to 1937, created compositions that spanned genres and captivated audiences worldwide. From the bustling streets of New York City to the serene landscapes of Ireland, his music transcended boundaries. As you stroll across Ha'penny Bridge over River Liffey in Dublin, Co Dublin, Ireland, imagine Gershwin's melodies echoing through the air. His harmonies could transport you to Moret-sur-Loing, where washerwomen diligently worked by the riverside. Gazing at "The Approach of the Line to the Zambesi" engraving, one can almost hear Gershwin's symphonic arrangements mirroring the grandeur of this majestic river. And when a rainbow arcs over housing in Monkstown or Blennerville Windmill harnesses alternative energy in Tralee Co Kerry, it feels as if Gershwin's innovative spirit is present. In New Ross, Co Wexford, Ireland stands a bridge connecting communities just like Gershwin connected people through his music. The rustic bridges in Annesgrove and Castletownroche evoke a sense of nostalgia for simpler times when nature intertwined with human existence. Even beyond borders lies inspiration for Gershwin; "The Avon Near Bristol" hints at his ability to find beauty wherever he went. Just like travellers on a donkey depicted by Herman van Swanevelt centuries ago experienced new horizons with each step forward. Through George Gershwin's timeless compositions and these diverse locations captured in images measuring 2980 x 3792 pixels each - we are reminded that art has no limits.
