Jazz
Salon Rouge
Website
Jazz Salon Rouge is a long established band
of musicians who play regularly around the Midlands. The band
presents a fresh traditional treatment of New Orleans Jazz
and Classic Jazz (i.e. Traditional Jazz and Blues). Some tunes
are borrowed from Dixieland or Duke Ellington. The occasional
pop tune or ballad is included for fun.
This band of 'young' old Jazzers from the Warwickshire area
have been entertaining locally since 1974.
The band normally play as a Six-piece Traditional line up
of Trumpet, Clarinet, Trombone in the front line and Banjo,
Bass, Drums in the rhythm section. However occasionally a
quieter approach is necessary and a tasteful Trad Jazz Quartet
can be staged.
Some of the musicians double on other instruments to add musical
variety. The Clarinet player also plays Soprano Saxophone.
The Banjo player also plays Guitar.
The band is often complemented by the addition of a lady vocalist
to add that little bit of glamour.
The band usually play for Jazz Music enthusiasts in pubs and
clubs in the Coventry / Warwick / Rugby area. It has occasionally
played at various Festivals, in particular the Upton Jazz
Festival and every year of the Music Spectacular at South
Lake Compton Verney.
The band occasionally plays at Parties, Weddings and other
private functions, when invited.
