| Performance Notes | The dynamic Jason Max Ferdinand Singers has appeared at Washington DCs Kennedy Center and collaborated with Coldplay and Jacob Collier, who has described the experience as transformative to a life-altering degree.
Making its UK debut, these powerful voices present an uplifting matinee, mixing classical, jazz and gospel. Its selection includes the jazz standard Misty and Colliers harmonically shapeshifting World O World while exploring themes of faith and freedom, not least in Woody Guthries gospel-influenced song that declares: This land was made for you and me.
