New Gregory Porter DVD
Gregory Porter has become one of the best loved jazz vocalists of his generation and is definitely up there with some of the best of all times. It’s not difficult to understand why when you listen to his records, but especially when you see him in concert. His ability to hold the audience, spellbound, is something to behold. In this DVD that will be released on 18 November 2016, with minimal staging, simple lighting and the audience on all sides, it’s the perfect way to understand the Porter-Phenomiunum. The focus is totally on the music allowing Gregory sublime voice to bring out the light and shade in his songs. “Live In Berlin” is an absolute treat…
