The Queen’s Suite is a documentary that tells the story of Peter Edwards, one of Britain's most promising jazz musicians, as he tries to achieve his dream of playing Duke Ellington’s Queen’s Suite (written for the Queen in 1959) to the Queen of England at the centre of London's cultural quarter, The South Bank. The documentary follows Peter as he scores Ellington's work, puts together his orchestra, rehearses them and negotiates with Buckingham Palace. Does the Queen attend the performance? The film provides a unique and intimate insight into the background and career of an exceptional musician. The documentary has an original soundtrack performed by The Tomorrow's Warrior's Jazz Orchestra.
