On the 27th of April, Reunion Big Band dives into the golden era of swing music and especially the jazz legend Duke Ellington.
Ellington is one of jazz music's all-time greats, known for his hits like Satin Doll, It don’t mean a thing and Take the A Train. However, during his 50-year-long career, Ellington composed thousands of scores. This concert gives a glimpse of his virtuosity in mastering different styles and moods, with songs like Half The Fun and KoKo.
If your seat doesn't hold you, you're welcome to take a spin on our dance floor. Let's swing it!
