Miles Davis - Porgy and Bess, Jazz Philharmonic Orchestra + in Saint Petersburg, Alexandrinsky Theater

Director: Anton Boyarskikh

On December 1, a concert will take place within the walls of the Alexandrinsky Theater, which will be a real holiday for jazz connoisseurs and lovers of classical music. The legendary jazz opera by George Gershwin "Porgy and Bess" in an arrangement by Gil Evans, created especially for the great Miles Davis, will be presented on stage. This piece marks the era of the late 50s, when jazz was enriched with elements of academic music, creating a new style that still delights listeners today.

The Alexandrinsky Theatre, one of the most prestigious theatres in Russia, will be the perfect venue for this event. Its historical atmosphere and excellent acoustics will allow viewers to fully enjoy the sound and harmony that were laid down in this piece by Gil Evans. The theatre is located in the centre of St. Petersburg and is known for its magnificent interiors and rich history.

The Jazz Philharmonic Orchestra will perform on stage in an expanded line-up, which will add depth and richness to the sound. This is an opportunity to hear Porgy and Bess in an unusual performance that will take listeners back to 1958, when new modern trends were emerging in jazz.
