Festival favourite Lizzie Ball returns to Buxton with long-time collaborator and Ronnie Scott’s Artistic Director James Pearson. Together, they present an incredible tour-de-force of the music of George Gershwin and other American classics. Experience the thrill of Gershwin’s first hit Swanee as Paul Whiteman may have played it, The Man I Love in the style of Oscar Peterson and Lady be Good as Benny Goodman might have performed it in duo with Stephane Grappelli. The show includes a special concert arrangement of Rhapsody in Blue, which celebrates its centenary this year.
