Get ready for a dazzling night of Big Band Showstoppers!
Step back into the golden age of swing as we celebrate the irresistible sounds of the 1940s. From toe-tapping rhythms to lush harmonies, this unforgettable evening will showcase the timeless energy, charm, and sophistication of the big band era.
Our full ensemble will bring to life the music that once filled ballrooms and dance halls - favourites made famous by legends like Glenn Miller, Count Basie, Benny Goodman, and Duke Ellington. You’ll hear the soaring brass, smooth reeds, and driving rhythm section that defined a generation and kept spirits high during some of history’s most challenging years.
This concert promises an atmosphere brimming with nostalgia, glamour, and excitement. Get ready to be transported back in time for a spectacular night of swing, sass, and showstoppers -because when the big band takes the stage, the night truly comes alive!
Tickets are only £5 on the door and all proceeds go to supporting our younger generation - helping support children in our younger bands within the Barnsley Youth Jazz Association.
