NEW YEAR'S SWING CONCERT - SWING STARS

Come enjoy a New Year’s swing concert dedicated to a musical journey between two giants of the jazz and swing era—George Gershwin and Glenn Miller. Performed by an 18-piece big band, the hall will resound with famous melodies such as “Moonlight Serenade,” “In the Mood,” and “Fascinating Rhythm.” You’ll also hear timeless compositions by other legends, such as Duke Ellington, Richard Rodgers, Cole Porter, and the doyen of Czech swing, Jaroslav Ježek.
