Another of his works, which includes parts for maracas, gourd, and bongo, was originally titled Rumba and was inspired by a trip to Havana. This composer used (*) taxi horns in his orchestration of a ballet portraying the French capital in the 1920s, and was also inspired by a train journey to Boston to compose the penultimate piece of a concert titled "An Experiment in Modern Music." That work by this composer of Cuban Overture and An American in Paris begins with a famous clarinet trill and glissando. For ten points, name this American composer of Rhapsody in Blue.
