Don’t forget the grand finale of the Isle of Wight International Jazz Festival is Pete Long’s big swing band featuring Ian Shaw and Liane Carrol.
The jazz duo will be taking part in this specially commissioned performance with an 18 piece Big Swing Orchestra of major names led by Pete Long, director of Ronnie Scotts Big Band.
The Orchestra will be presenting all the great hits of the golden years of swing. Expect to hear from the libraries of Basie, Goodman, Shaw, Ellington, Barnet, Kenton and Miller. Liane and Ian will also be mixing some of the great Ella Fitzgerald numbers along with soulful recollections from the swinging repertoire of Ray Charles.
