In a striking similarity with the
frequency of the average British bus service, the New Century Ragtime Orchestra
will be appearing twice this weekend after several weeks of waiting!
This Saturday afternoon, 7 October,
we're at Darlington Jazz Club, St Augustines Parish Centre, Larchfield Street,
Darlington DL3 7TG. It's a great venue with on-site parking (free) and an
on-site bar (less free). The show starts at 12.30 pm, and tickets are
available on the door, which opens at 12 noon - further information is
available at www.darlingtonjazz.co.uk.
Then on Sunday evening, 8 October,
we're at the Salutation Inn, Lake Road, Ambleside LA22 9BX as part of a 3-day
All That Jazz mini festival of classic jazz, also featuring on subsequent days
Enrico Tomasso, John Hallam, Keith Nichols, Spats Langham and Nick Ward.
Further information available on 015394 32244 or visit jazz@hotelslakedistruct.com.
We hope you can join us at one of
these concerts!

The New Century Ragtime
Orchestra
This
twelve-piece orchestra plays music from the dawn of Ragtime in the 1890’s
through to the early Swing Era of the 1930’s.
Lovingly
recreated from the original sheet music and painstakingly scored for full
ensemble, we perform not only ragtime composers such as Scott Joplin but also
the classic jazz and hot dance music of the 1920’s, and the early swing of Duke
Ellington.
