About this event
National Symphony Orchestra Ireland
Troy Miller, conductor
A one of a kind phenomenon with a voice like no other, two-time Grammy Award-winner Gregory Porter comes to the National Concert Hall for the first time.
Blessed by ‘one of the most easy-on-the-ear voices in popular music, a creamy baritone that flows thick and smooth across a rich gateaux of juicy melody’ (Daily Telegraph), Porter is one of today's most distinctive and unforgettable song stylists.
For one night only, he brings his signature blend of jazz, gospel, soul, funk and heartfelt storytelling to this special collaboration with National Symphony Orchestra Ireland.
Iconic hits include the gospel-tinged ‘Liquid Spirit’, the tragic anthem of unrequited longing, 'Hey Laura’, the poignant ballad ‘No Love Dying’, the joyful soul-jazz of ‘Revival’, and more.
