Swing City

StephenT

This was a time of jumpin’, jivin’, and wailin’ with tunes and performances that are still entertaining to people of all ages. Each Swing City program offers music by genres (blues, stomps, jumps), artists (Benny Goodman, Ella Fitzgerald), instruments (Harry James’ trumpet, Tommy Dorsey’s trombone), themes (city tunes, “moon” songs), or Big Bands (Les Elgart, Count Basie). Swingin’ Steph also includes historical notes  amusing anecdotes, and background details on the music and musicians.
