Clare Teal and Big Band 2018 Past Event

A celebration of popular music from the golden age of song – upbeat and uplifting to the extreme.

This brand new show sees award-winning vocalist and Radio 2 presenter Clare Teal and her excellent musicians effortlessly traverse a rich landscape of timeless and sparkling material, with standards from the grand masters of the Great American Song Book, Cole Porter and Rodgers & Hart to witty and urbane song stylists of the 50s and 60s – Cy Coleman, Carolyn Leigh and Dave Brubeck, there’s always a nod to more contemporary writers and originals too.

This ensemble built to demonstrate the thrill and power of the big band age, packed with fantastic jazz players capable of taking flight at any given moment gives a great backdrop for Clare to communicate her eclectic songbook of intimate ballads, roaring blues, sophisticated swing and fiery latin tunes; in fact grooves of every kind are in abundance.

With arrangements by world-renowned trumpeter and composer Guy Barker and jazz pianist extraordinaire Jason Rebello, songs include Cry Me A River, Take Five, What Is This Thing Called Love, I Wish You Love, I’ll Take Romance, It Don’t Mean A Thing If It Ain’t Got That Swing, How Long Has This Been Going On, Perfidia, There’ll Be A Hot Time In The Old Town Tonight

As one of the UK’s greatest interpreters of song and much loved performers, Clare and her Big Mini Big Band promise an evening of inspired music and unbridled entertainment, coupled with Clare’s warm and witty storytelling a night to be remembered is guaranteed!
