Who

The
Crown Phoenix Big Band is a North Worcestershire based Big
Band. We play a range of music, including tunes made famous by
big names such as Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, Ted Heath,
Frank Sinatra, Duke Ellington. Some great composers and
arrangers, such as Sammy Nestico and Quincy Jones feature, as
do big band arrangements of tunes by Cole Porter, Herbie
Hancock and more.
What
do we do?
The
band meet regularly on a Tuesday evening for rehearsals. We
play a number of gigs throughout the year, some gigs are open
to the general public (see the gig list for details), others
are private gigs, such as Weddings, parties, annual dinners,
etc.
Who
are we?
The band is mostly comprised of amateur
and semi-professional players, who meet together because we enjoy playing Big
Band music. We also
have vocalists who join us for selected tunes.
