Moondance
From big, bold and brassy to elegant and introspective, the Tunisian Nights Little Big Band brings to life music made famous by artists like Frank Sinatra, Louis Armstrong, Michael Buble, Ella Fitzgerald, Nat King Cole, and many many more. The immediacy and intensity of big band arrangements are set in contrast against the meditative self expression of smaller format improvisation.
Take a journey through iconic and timeless melodies, rich harmonies and inspiring artistry delivered by some of Adelaide's finest musicians. A swingin' good time!
Presented by: Dennis Russell
As Musical Director and front man for Adelaide swing group “The Tunisian Nights Little Big Band”, Dennis Russell is used to being a musical chameleon. It is a knowledge hard won through 35 years of performing with everything from brass bands to mass choirs, orchestras to heavy rock bands. From swinging as a lead trumpet player in big bands, to writing and performing original music that has been heard all over the world.
His vision for a stripped-down big band has brought classic vocal swing charts back to the audiences of Adelaide since 2018 and has been met with sell out crowds and rave reviews. With a committed group of brilliant musicians, the Tunisian Nights Little Big Band are proof that our home grown talent can match it with the best!
