  • Voices of Swing
    The 30-piece Down for the Count Orchestra return to The Coro in Ulverston with "a sonic ride back to the to the sounds of Capitol Studios in the 1950s) as they play timeless classics from The Great American Songbook. Composers such as George Gershwin, Cole Porter, Hoagy Carmichael and Irving Berlin transformed the art of popular song in the first half of the 20th Century, providing the material that would spring artists such as Frank Sinatra, Nat 'King' Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee, Judy Garland, and many more to international stardom. The music of these great artists and composers will be brought to life by Down for the Count's Orchestra, featuring some of the UK's top emerging musicians and arrangers under the baton of musical director Mike Paul-Smith. The orchestra preserve and protect the musical heritage of these unforgettable songs, whilst also looking to the future by presenting original arrangements of classic standards written by members of the orchestra.
