This special concert features fast-rising trumpeter Giveton Gelin, legendary saxophonist Denys Baptiste, the ground-breaking Nikki Yeoh Trio and the ever-versatile 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra, conducted by Principal Guest Conductor and Curator Edwin Outwater. Together, they鈥檒l take you on a musical journey through Coltrane鈥檚 work, from the 1950s through to the late sixties. For one night only, the legend lives.
Presented by Georgia Mann and recorded at Queen Elizabeth Hall on 24 November 2024.
