Ridehuset Swings - and celebrates Quincy Jones

KONCERTEN ER UDSOLGT!

For the 31st time, Aarhus Jazz Orchestra hosts Ridehuset Swinger, where community, good atmosphere, and great musical experiences are at the center.

This year, Aarhus Jazz Orchestra celebrates the legend of Quincy Jones - one of the most important composers and arranger in music history. He has produced hundreds of albums with a wide range of international stars - from Miles Davis, Frank Sinatra, and Count Basie to Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, and Donna Summer. He has made music for over 50 films, won more awards than anyone else, including 28 Grammys, and he has - not least - made some of the best big band music in jazz history.

Under the skillful direction of conductor Nikolai Bøgelund, Aarhus Jazz Orchestra will dive into Quincy Jones's impressive portfolio and cover Ella Fitzgerald, Count Basie, Michael Jackson, Frank Sinatra, and much more.

Sit back in the Ridehuset's fantastic surroundings, and prepare for everything from swinging Basie to heady car chases - and not least an orchestra in peak condition.

When there is a break in the music at Ridehuset, you can enjoy a cold beer and delicious food from Spiselauget, which this year sets up food stalls on Officerspladsen and ensures a good atmosphere between shows.
