Fini Bearman: Porgy and Bess Revisited

Music / Saturday, 16 June 2012 - 8:00pm / Hall Two
£12.50 Online Savers £9.50 (Subject to Availability)

Porgy and Bess, a groundbreaking opera written by George and Ira Gershwin in 1934, contains some of the best loved and most covered jazz classics, including 'Summertime' and 'It Ain't Necessarily So'.

Up-and-coming London-based singer/composer Fini Bearman revisits some of the music from the opera, with exciting new arrangements and compositions based on the Gershwins' music.

Together with renowned electronic musician, guitarist and composer Matt Calvert, and a stellar line-up including some of London's finest jazz musicians (Rick Simpson, Tom Farmer and Jon Scott) they will be exploring this music in a fresh light, calling on various recorded interpretations including the well-known eponymous album by Miles Davis and Gil Evans.
