This event has ended
The legendary Grammy award-winning Count Basie Orchestra will bring its unique style of jazz and swing to The Venetian Theatre. The intimate venue will see the 19-piece orchestra, made up of 17 sidemen and vocalists Alexander Stewart and Carmen Bradford, led through a catalogue of hits by two-time Grammy Award winner Scotty Barnhart, who was announced as the new director in September 2013. Barnhart is committed to continuing the excellent history started by Basie of stomping and shouting the blues, as well as refining those musical particulars that allow for the deepest and most moving of swing.
