FROM THE BLUES AND BASIE TO THE BIG SCREEN AND BEYOND
Tracing the evolution of big band music from its earliest beginnings to 2025.
“Reinventing the big band..." - Jazzwise Magazine
"...one of the UK’s most effortlessly fluent big bands” – Jazz Alert
"...a truly great band." - Jazz Views
With our full 18-piece big band, we tell the story of jazz, swing, and big band history from its inception to the present day, showcasing music by some of the most popular, groundbreaking and adventurous musicians in history.
The development of big band jazz was not an easy journey—its story is fraught with racial inequality, gender stereotyping, and harsh realities. However, the music that was created lives on as a testament to those who helped forge it, and remains just as relevant today as ever.
From the cotton plantations of the Deep South to blockbuster film soundtracks - big bands have survived everything from financial depressions, world wars, pop-mania, and technological advances.
Time After Time shines a spotlight on jazz's most iconic names and will bring you all the way to the big band music of 2025...
