Misty – The Erroll Garner Story

Cinema

The brilliant autodidact and exceptional pianist Erroll Garner played without being able to read music, with captivating virtuosity and a very personal style. His world-famous composition »Misty«, which he allegedly wrote during a flight, immediately became one of the most important jazz standards. To this day, it is one of the most covered ballads in the world.

But behind the glittering career that took him to the world's biggest stages lay a complex private life. Who was the man behind the always friendly smile, who came from humble beginnings in the ghettos of Pittsburgh? Particularly noteworthy: thanks to a clause that his manager Martha Glaser built into his contracts, his performances were always without racial segregation. A long overdue rediscovery.

Accompanying programme on 8 February:

Look forward to atmospheric live music by the jazz band »Cosmic Noise« before and after the documentary film.
