Drawing upon the rich history of swing music, The Swing Orchestra masterfully blends traditions and styles. From Gypsy jazz to western swing, trad jazz to bebop; if it swings, nothing is off-limits! At its core, the Swing Orchestra champions the values of community, mentorship, joy, and the transformative nature of shared moments.
