People may put down George Gershwin as a "serious" composer because he had Ferde Grofé orchestrate a lot of his work and freely admitted that he lacked that skill, at least in the beginning, but he was simply following the normal Broadway practice of his time.

AFAIK - Gershwin did all the Porgy and Bess orchestrations. I don't know about the Concerto in F.
