Miles Davis, trumpeter, bandleader, and composer is widely considered one of the most influential musicians of the 20th C. Together with his musical groups, he was at the forefront of the major developments in jazz music, including bebop, cool jazz, hard bop, modal jazz, and jazz fusion. Working first with Charlie Parker; then with the hard bop styles of the early ’50s and his own quintet of the late ‘50s, In 1959 he produced his masterpiece album “Kind of Blue”, introducing an unsuspecting jazz world to modal music (improvisations around note series rather than chord sequences).
Featuring the classic tracks “So What” and “All Blues”, the album highlighted the extraordinary talents of soon-to-be-legendary jazz greats, John Coltrane and Cannonball Adderley. With a string of successful Hoagy Carmichael and Jazz at The Movies concerts and with his Rebop ensemble playing to sell out audiences in last year’s London Jazz Festival, Chris Ingham on piano comes to Pizza Express Dean Street with Rebop to evoke the style and sounds of the wonderful music of the Miles Davis Sextet, plus their own imaginative creativity and improvisations.
