Free evening of swing and jazz from the 1940s with Ronnie Smith's Big Band at St Symphorian's Church, with a licensed bar and nibbles.
Ronnie Smith's Big Band are back at St Symphorian's Church on Tuesday 10 November, their latest return to a venue where they've become a firm favourite over a number of previous visits. The night is built around a lively mix of swing and jazz stretching from the 1940s onwards, so you'll hear the big band sound that defined the era and the styles that grew out of it.
It's a full band on the stand, not a small group, so the sound has that particular weight and swing that only a big band can bring. The set covers a broad stretch of jazz history, starting with the swing of the 1940s and moving forward from there, rather than sticking to one particular decade. The whole thing is presented by the St Symphorian's Church Social & Fundraising Committee, and the evening doesn't end when the music stops: there's a licensed bar and nibbles afterwards, and the chance to catch up with friends.
