New album from the Syd Lawrence Orchestra
|
|||
Founded in 1967 by trumpeter and arranger Syd Lawrence, The fabulous SYD LAWRENCE ORCHESTRA has been thrilling audiences in Concert Halls, Theatres, TV Shows and Music Festivals all over Great Britain and Continental Europe for over 40 years. Renowned for it’s exciting blend of high octane Big Band Swing and Classic Dance Music, the Orchestra’s repertoire ranges from the wartime million sellers of the legendary Glenn Miller through the era of the great Count Basie Orchestra to the hit songs of Frank Sinatra and Ella Fitzgerald. Count Basie himself described the Syd Lawrence Orchestra as “So good it should be BANNED!” and it has recently been voted “Best Big Band in the Land” for the tenth consecutive year.
The Orchestra, directed since Syd’s retirement in 1996 by Chris Dean, has a repertoire of over 1,200 classic Big Band titles. “The music is what people want to hear” says Chris, “information they can get in books, they come to a concert to be entertained, not to hear a lecture”. The bands latest recording “Strictly Big Band” is released this week and is their third recording to be made at Jazzmouse. The album comprises of seventeen big band classics with vocals from Chris, Ellie Keenan & Angie Mills and instrumental solos from Colin Skinner & Ian Moffat. Trevor Brown and Colin Skinner provide many of the excellent arrangements. Roland Shaw and Syd Lawrence charts are juxtaposed alongside the great works of Bill Finegan and British trombone legend George Chisholm. This album is available at the bands many engagements and will soon be ready for purchase via the Jazzmouse Download shop.
