Live at the Theaterhaus Stuttgart
SWR Big Band & Syd Lawrence Orchestra
Directed by Chris Dean
The SWR Big Band - one of the finest Big bands in the world - just celebrated its 60th Birthday. And how! ... In honor of the occasion, the Syd Lawrence Orchestra from England was invited to help the SWR musicians commemorate the evening with a joyous swinging jazz birthday party! "The World's Biggest Big Band" - recorded live on 21 April 2011 at the Stuttgart International Jazz Festival perfectly captures the spontaneity of that special evening, and is the SWR Big Band's very special gift to Jazz fans everywhere.
"... The momentum of these two bands is simply stunning, as the musicians play each other the ball. The music becomes a full-body experience and you can not but help to smile!, you just have to smile! The audience in the packed theater was caught up in the positive energy created by these two groups, frequently bursting into frenetic applause and standing ovations! It was not just a concert, it was an event! "
(Hans-Peter Zachary, SWR)
