Production details
David McAlmont gives his interpretations of the Lady Day catalogue while quoting from her extraordinary life story, with a band led by pianist / MD Alex Webb. The show includes many of the most well-known Holiday songs, ranging - as did the Carnegie Hall concert - from the optimism of her 1930s work What a Little Moonlight Can Do, Fine and Mellow through her 1940s torch songs My Man, I Cover The Waterfront to her self-penned hits Don't Explain and Lady Sings The Blues - and many more.
