Join the county’s premier award-winning jazz orchestra, the Hertfordshire Big Band, for an exploration of one of the most influential music genres of the past century.
Listeners will be guided on a journey from the inception of big band music in the 20th Century and its burst into mainstream consciousness during the 30s and 40s, through its experimental rock-fusion revival during the 60s and 70s, all the way to its widening popularity in the present day among contemporary jazz musicians and composers across the world.
Whether you are a lifelong big band fan, or new to the genre, this is an event not to miss. Come with friends and family for an evening of great music and company – join us under the stars in St Albans for a Big Band Explosion!
