The “Roaring 20s” comes to ‘Jazz at Jamison’ in April with the welcome return of renowned trumpeter Geoff Power and his critically acclaimed Great Gatsby Orchestra. Playing to huge audiences, this outstanding 10-piece orchestra delivers hot jazz, dance music and novelty songs from the 1920s and 1930s and into the Swing Era. Expect to hear music from Sidney Bechet, Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Artie Shaw, Fats Waller, Lu Watters, to name a few, plus tributes to the great Australian bands and players such as Graeme Bell’s All Stars.
Geoff Power is one of this country’s most accomplished jazz musicians and his Great Gatsby Orchestra is a project dear to his heart with 5 members of his very talented family joining him in the line-up. A regular member of the orchestra is the much-in-demand virtuoso pianist and specialist in stride and ragtime piano styles, Robbie Mann. Special guest on the day will be the brilliant reeds player, Paul Furniss, another of this country’s jazz icons.
Don’t miss what will be an exceptional musical experience as Geoff Power’s Great Gatsby Orchestra returns for its much-anticipated sixth appearance in Canberra.
Music from 1pm in the lounge. A good variety of lunch offerings are available in the bistro. Bookings recommended for lunch.
Note that members of the CJC have reserved seating closer to the band.
