In 1959, Miles Davis and Gil Evans produced perhaps their most outstanding album in George Gershwin's Porgy and Bess.

St Andrew's musical director Chris Coull and his all-star quintet bring Gershwin's Porgy and Bess to life in a thrilling jazz suite for the 21st century.

Award-winning vocalist Imogen Ryall joins pianist John Turville, bassist Simon Thorpe and drummer Matt Fishwick for a dynamic performance of timeless favourites (Summertime, I Loves You, Porgy) alongside rediscovered gems (Buzzard Song, Strawberry Woman).

With interspersed narration from the opera, hard bop grooves, Latin rhythms and sumptuous ballads, this concert reimagines the MilesGershwin masterpiece with both authenticity and invention a spellbinding evening of world-class jazz.
