Duke Ellington/Ella Fitzgerald Songbook with the Echoes of Ellington Orchestra & Sara Oschlag.

Peterborough Jazz Club are very excited to present another fabulous Big Band event to be held in the main auditorium of the Key Theatre. This Duke Ellington/Ella Fitzgerald Song Book concert unites the award winning Echoes Of Ellington Jazz Orchestra (full 17 piece big band), led by Peter Long,  with internationally acclaimed jazz vocal virtuoso Sara Oschlag to achieve an evening of the very finest in swing music. Expect to hear…Take The “A” Train, Caravan, Don’t Get Around Much Anymore, C Jam Blues, I Let A Song Go Out Of My Heart and many more of Duke’s classic compositions. In the late 1950’s to the early 1960’s Duke and Ella, two of the true greats of jazz,  made a series of recordings which continue to dazzle listeners to this day. Vocalist Sara Oschlag joins the Echos of Ellington Orchestra for this special concert and her stage presence, expressive voice and effortless sense of swing have made her a firm favourite with musicians and audiences alike. Her Ella Fitzgerald interpretations of the Duke Ellington Song book have amazed and entertained audiences across the UK.

Full details of the Big Band line-up will be detailed later on in a separate flyer for this concert.
