Down for the Count Swing Orchestra

The 30-piece Down for the Count Swing Orchestra returns to Cadogan Hall for another big band with strings celebration. You’ll be treated to the music of Nat ‘King’ Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, Dean Martin, Peggy Lee, Frank Sinatra, Judy Garland, and many more – bought back to life by some of the UK’s top jazz musicians and arrangers. This “big band with strings” preserves and protects the musical heritage of these great artists – but this is no mere nostalgia trip, as Down for the Count perform each song in their own unmistakeable style, breathing new life into the best vintage music. “Awesome!!!” Michael Bublé PROGRAMME INCLUDES: Ain’t That a Kick in the Head ’S Wonderful Let There Be Love The Nearness of You That’s Life Theme from New York, New York and many more PERFORMERS: Down for the Count Swing Orchestra Mike Paul-Smith conductor Plus vocalists to be announced
