Paul Higgs - Shades Of Miles - a Centenary Celebration

Celebrating the centenary of Miles Davis – widely regarded as the most influential jazz trumpeter in history – this tribute explores his groundbreaking contributions to jazz from the mid-1940s to the early 1990s. From bebop and cool jazz to hard bop, modal, jazz funk, and fusion, Paul performs both iconic pieces and lesser-known treasures from each era. Ace trumpeter Paul Higgs plays with a sublime tone and breathtaking technique. He has performed with Johnny Dankworth, Lulu, Tony Hatch, John Williams, Peggy Lee and Nancy Wilson. He has also performed in major concert venues around the world. His great sensitivity, high energy and his own skill as a composer make him a superb proponent of Miles Davis's music.

“Paul Higgs is a world-class composer and trumpet player.” Digby Fairweather: BBC presenter (Radio 2 and 3).

"With Paul, you are guaranteed an excellent performance. He's a fantastically professional artist and an outstanding trumpeter," Rebecca Stewart, Concerts Manager, Cadogan Hall.
