BBC Proms regular, Matt Ford, presents an evening of world-class music and song from one of the 20th Century’s most celebrated composers - Cole Porter – whose music reigned supreme in the Broadway Musicals and Hollywood films of the early 20th Century.
Matt is joined by a trio of world-class musicians - for an intimate musical journey as they perform a selection of Cole Porter’s finest and most iconic music, including the likes of: ‘I’ve Got You Under My Skin’, ‘Night & Day’, ‘Too Darn Hot’, ‘Anything Goes’, ‘I Get a Kick Out of You’ … and many more.
'Ford shares with Sinatra a gift for timing and thoughtful phrasing which adds new colours to the songs and gives them a freshness’ - The Times
‘One of the finest voices this country has produced’ - Clare Teal
‘Matt Ford is the archetypal crooner’ - Mail on Sunday
