About this event

Following on from last year’s successful dive into the ‘20s with “Gatsby and Beyond”, this New Year’s Eve celebration with the RTÉ Concert Orchestra and Guy Barker’s Big Band will move into the ‘30s and ‘40s – the swing era.

Swing, Swing, Swing in the new year with the music of the King of Swing Benny Goodman, Duke Ellington, Count Basie, Billie Holiday, Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Nat King Cole, Lionel Hampton, Cab Calloway, Tommy Dorsey and more!

With a nod to the musical explosion that happened in the mid ‘40s – bebop – we’ll celebrate the music of Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker and Thelonius Monk, plus new arrangements by jazz genius Guy Barker, Associate Artist with the RTÉ Concert Orchestra.

Tickets €34.50, €40, €50, €60, €69.50
