Benny Goodman Carnegie Concert 1938 Recreation
Regarded as the finest jazz spectacle ever, the Benny Goodman Carnegie Hall concert of 1938 is revered by big band fans worldwide and recordings continue to sell today. Ex Jools Holland arranger and star soloist Pete Long doesn’t have Gene Krupa, Harry James, Lionel Hampton and Teddy Wilson in the All-Star Goodmen Orchestra, but he does have the cream of London’s big band players, guaranteeing to provide all the passion of the original concert. All the repertoire from the Carnegie Hall concert will be featured, including Don’t Be That Way, Body & Soul, One O’Clock Jump and China Boy. An added bonus will be the American vocalist Joan Viskant.
