Matt Monro Junior presents his show 'Intimately Yours' at The Platform
An evening of Matt Monro's greatest hits
A stunning tribute to the late great Matt Monro comes to the Platform on Saturday 19 September. This show is a unique evening of music, warmth and love performed by his son Matt Monro Jnr.
Hot off the back of his Filipino tour, Matt Monro Junior has, over the last five years, firmly established himself as a great international showman and artist in his own right. His show `Intimately Yours` offers a real insight into the life and music of the late Matt Monro. A warm witty and intimate evening that recreates, celebrates and pays homage to his father and friends including Sammy Davis, Frank Sinatra, Barry Manilow, Neil Diamond and The Beatles who shaped the music we know and love today.
Featuring the Colin Keyes Orchestra, Matt Monro`s original musical director, many of Matt Monro`s greatest hits will be included. Expect to hear `Born Free`, `From Russia with Love`, `Yesterday`, `Portrait of My Love`, `We’re Gonna Change the World` and many more.
Matt Jnr has a striking resemblance to his father, although he sings the songs in his own style. He is keeping the memory of his father and his music alive, as well as recounting stories that go hand in hand with the songs.
The show will start at 7.30pm and tickets cost £15 adults, £13 concessions from the Box Office on 01524 582803.
