SINNE EEG & TIVOLI BIG BAND

A Tribute to Tivoli’s Jazz History with Duke Ellington, Ella Fitzgerald and Sarah Vaughan

Tivoli’s Big Band and Sinne Eeg celebrate Tivoli’s rich jazz history and pay tribute to three of jazz’s greatest artists who performed regularly on Tivoli’s stages in the 1950s, 60s and 70s.

Duke Ellington and Ella Fitzgerald visited the Tivoli numerous times over those three decades, and another of jazz’s greatest voices, Sarah Vaughan, recorded her personal masterpiece, “Sassy Swings The Tivoli,” in 1963, with none other than Quincy Jones as producer.

Tivoli’s Big Band and Sinne Eeg delve into the rich repertoire from Ella Fitzgerald’s “Duke Ellington Songbook” album and recreate for the first time a handful of the titles from “Sassy Swings The Tivoli” in newly written big band arrangements. Inspired by how Quincy Jones might have written them, these arrangements are created by Tivoli’s Grammy-nominated bandmaster and house arranger Peter Jensen.

DKK 195.00 ($28.21) ~ DKK 325.00 ($47.02) Includes ticket fee and entrance to Tivoli Gardens.
