THE Pasadena Roof Orchestra will be at Harrogate's Royal Hall on October 16.
For more than 30 years the orchestra has delighted audiences all over the world with its mix of swing and hot dance music.
Swing is much more than a musical genre, it personifies a lust for life, with its infectious beat. Its roots lie in the pre-war dance bands, and the roaring 20s which inspired the later big swing bands.
In contrast to many other musical genres swing has never really gone out of fashion over the decades.
Today, not only is the orchestra bringing its music to young audiences all over the world, it is introducing new generations of young musicians to the music. The reputation of the orchestra is as legendary in its own right, as the bands from the 1920s and 1930s that inspired it.
