2024: Sarah Vaughan: Tribute to a Legend at the Proms



Clive Myrie presents a celebration of one of the most iconic voices of the 20th century. Featuring some of the songs that Vaughan brought to fame, including Misty, If You Could See Me Now and Body and Soul. \n \nSarah, or 'Sassy' as she was known, would have celebrated her 100th birthday this year. Her spellbinding voice defied the boundaries of a single genre, working alongside the likes of Dizzy Gillespie, Count Basie and Michael Tilson Thomas. \n \nMercury Prize-nominated Guy Barker arranges for and conducts the BBC Concert Orchestra, taking the audience on a journey through Sarah Vaughan’s illustrious career with soloists Marisha Wallace, CHERISE, Lucy-Anne Daniels and Lizz Wright. Clarke Peters performs the role of Sassy collaborator Billy Eckstine.
