Join the Johannesburg Big Band and two of South Africa's finest vocal talents this Valentine’s Day in a scintillating celebration of love in Love Swings at The Lyric Theatre, Gold Reef City for one night only on Saturday 14 February at 8pm.
After three successful shows, the world-class 17-piece Johannesburg Big Band, directed by Adam Howard, returns to The Lyric Theatre providing a charming musical journey that celebrates LOVE in true, classic big band tradition.
Love Swings will pay tribute to the greatest love songs made popular by the stars who performed and composed them.
Joining them on stage will be SA's finest award-winning jazz vocalist Gloria Bosman (Shanghai Expo in China; African Songbook; Porgy & Bess, The Mandela Trilogy; Songs of Migration.) and the crowd favourite with his velvety vocals; Timothy Moloi (FIFA 2010 World Cup Opening Ceremony, My Big Band Valentine; My Favourite Swings; Starlight Classics, Aladdin).
They will be adding their incomparable voices to the instantly recognisable hits including It Had To Be You; L.O.V.E.; My Girl; Beyond The Sea; My Funny Valentine; That's Amore; Ain't That A Kick In The Head and Home and many more…
Love Swings will be a night out on the town to remember, transporting the audience through a roller-coaster ride of their favourite love songs. The show will highlight the inimitable flair of the Johannesburg Big Band and the vocalists, as they provide an unforgettable evening for those in and out of love, those still searching for the elusive emotion and those who merely love a good love song.
"After the success of My Big Band Valentine last year, we're thrilled to have been able to secure the Johannesburg Big Band for a second consecutive year", says Mike Page, Director of Operations and General Manager of Gold Reef City.
He continues; "We're proud to be hosting Love Swings on Valentine's Day 2015 and we look forward to our audience at the Lyric Theatre enjoying the outstanding vocals this year by the award winning Gloria Bosman and the smooth-as-chocolate-voice of Timothy Moloi."
