Rhapsody in Blue — Saint Louis Symphony Orchestra
George Gershwin, composer

In the first 5 seconds, when the clarinet* goes way up, it sounds exactly like a subway train taking off. I thought this the first time I road on the trains and still hear it every time. I’m not crazy.

*correction!

Have loved this song since I was little.
