Paradise Jazz: Monday Night Big Band, feat. Special guest

Once again, Paradise Jazz and Niels Jørgen Steen’s Monday Night Big Band invite audiences to a night of vibrant swing, grand arrangements, and musical brilliance. The repertoire draws from the great composers of the swing and bebop era – including Cole Porter, Jerome Kern, Duke Ellington, and Count Basie – arranged by Steen himself and infused with his distinctive take on the big band tradition.

Expect a concert that brings the golden age of big band jazz into 2025, performed with energy, joy, and the warm sound that generations of listeners have cherished. And this time, the band is joined by a special guest who will give the evening an extra spark.

Lineup:

Niels Jørgen Steen (conductor), Johan Bylling Lang and Jens Søndergaard (alto saxophone), Jan Harbeck and Andreas Toftemark (tenor saxophone), Katrine Suwalski (baritone saxophone), Rolf Mandix, Niels Gerhardt, Vincent Nilsson and Petter Hängsel (trombone), Peter Marott, Andre Bak and Rolf Thofte (trumpet), Marie Louise Schmidt (piano), Morten Højring (guitar), Ida Hvid (bass), Roger Berg (drums).
