Description

Tap, jive and do the soft-shoe shuffle, baby. It’s time to jitterbug and boogie!

In Swing, Baby, Swing, young audiences will join stage legend Wayne Scott Kermond and pick up some too-cool-to-be-true dance steps. As the Primary Proms Big Band plays some of the classics of that memorable jazz and rock’n’roll era, Wayne will introduce the audience to the brass family of instruments.

This is a great chance to learn about this unique style as you listen to, feel and move to the rhythms of swing. So shine up your shoes and break out your best dance moves, it’s swinging time!
