Gregory Porter Brings Christmas Wish Album to Germany with Seven-City Tour
Gregory Porter & Band will tour Germany in 2026 with seven stops, performing material from his 2023 holiday album Christmas Wish. This marks the first time Porter has taken the album on the road since its release three years earlier. The tour's theme centers on community and comfort, aligning with the holiday season. Porter will be accompanied not only by his band but also by a string quartet consisting of two violins, a viola, a cello, and a harp, plus a three-part choir. This arrangement is designed to support Porter's voice and add depth and emotion to the songs. The program features soul and jazz songs by Porter alongside Christmas classics in new arrangements. The emphasis is on humanity and warmth, offering a contrast to the stress and overstimulation that can accompany the Christmas period. The concerts provide an opportunity to get into the holiday spirit. The source article is by Alica Dähn and published on kulturnews.de.
