- American_Rhapsody abstract "American Rhapsody was written for the accordion by John Serry, Sr. in 1955 and subsequently transcribed for the free bass accordion in 1963 and for the piano in 2002. The composer was inspired by the classical orchestral works of George Gershwin along with various percussive rhythms utilized throughout South America while composing this opus. By synthesizing compositional techniques typically associated with classical music with those identified with jazz, this piece serves as an example of the symphonic jazz genre featuring the stradella bass system accordion as a solo instrument. Its revised edition for free bass accordion is noteworthy in its attempt to illustrate the versatility of the instrument. In addition, it pays homage to the music of South America by incorporating a clear Latin American beat in the Dance sequence. The work is also noteworthy in so far as it represents an effort on the part of a known musician to compose for an instrument for which relatively few classical works were completed at the start of the 20th century in America (See Accordion Use in Classical music & Accordion music genres).The composition was published in its original version for the solo Stradella bass system piano accordion by the Alpha Music Company in 1957 (See Published Compositions above). The work was premiered by the composer on the free bass accordion in a concert series hosted by the Orpheus Glee Club at Flushing, New York, in December, 1963. It was subsequently performed by a student of the composer (Joseph Nappi) for the first annual concert of the Accordion Association of Long Island during 1964 in New York. It was eventually transcribed by the composer for solo piano in 2002 and is described in its revised version for piano. Copies of the work have been donated for the benefit of students at the Eastman School of Music's Sibley Music Library within the Ruth T. Watanabe Special Collections Department.".
