Trumpeter Eddie Henderson brings his quartet to Montmartre for an evening devoted to Miles Davis, the musician who mentored him from childhood. Henderson grew up close to Davis, and that personal connection runs through the programme, which covers a broad selection of Davis's major works across his bebop, post-bop and funk-fusion periods.
Henderson gained his own reputation in the 1970s as a central member of Herbie Hancock's Mwandishi band and has since worked with figures such as Art Blakey, McCoy Tyner, Pharoah Sanders and Joe Henderson. He also trained as a medical doctor and psychiatrist alongside his music career.
