Bringing the music of 1900 - 1935 to the Queen City with the utmost authenticity. Ragtime, hot jazz, and the roots of swing.
Doors and kitchen open at 6:00, music starts at 7pm. Admission is only $15!
The New Liberty Dance Orchestra is under the direction of Matt Tolentino, a native of Dallas, Texas who gained notoriety from the founding of his Singapore Slingers orchestra, a 16-piece group dedicated to performing and preserving the music of 1900 – 1935, garnering national praise and recognition for authentic replication of days gone by. The New Liberty Dance Orchestra is the Cincinnati spin off of the Singapore Slingers and seeks to bring the same great music to the Queen City.
The orchestra takes its name from the Liberty Dance Orchestra, a 1920s Cincinnati society band. They performed private high end functions and held residence at Cincinnati’s finest hotels. Flash forward a good 95 years to when the bass drum turned up in a pawn shop outside of Cincinnati, instantly inspiring the name of the band. Featuring some of the finest musicians in Cincinnati, the orchestra draws on ragtime, hot jazz, and the roots of swing, and is sure to play something for everyone. Using original arrangements (we have thousands in our library) as well as horns, drums, and even microphones of the period, you'll hear all of those old recordings come to life... with pep and energy to suit the modern audience.
The New Liberty Dance Orchestra looks to build on a grand past to create an exciting future. We look forward to playing for you soon – to learn more about the orchestra, visit www.NewLibertyDanceOrchestra.com, and to learn more about Matt Tolentino, check out www.MattTolentino.com.
