Gershwins \"Rhapsody in Blue\" havde premiere i 1924. På sin første soloindspilning for Alpha Classics ønskede Claire Huangci at fejre dette hundredeårsjubilæum sammen med sine rødder i Amerika, hvor hun blev født, studerede musik og debuterede som koncertartist i en alder af ni år. Udover Gershwin indeholder albummet også musik af Samuel Barber og Amy Beach.
