Description

We’re delighted to be back with a new show featuring some of the greatest music from the big band era. Our classic 17-piece big band orchestra will be playing a varied programme of jazz, swing and Latin numbers, including a mix of classic big band and also more contemporary jazz arrangements to get your toes tapping. Vocalist Mary May joins us to perform some old favourites and also more modern arrangements of songs by the Carpenters and the Beatles, amongst others.

Lots of energy& great soloists. Played some tricky pieces with lots of notes really well! Nice to hear the power of a full big band live.
