AMERCAN SWING NIGHT
In the world-famous BENNY GOODMAN SOUND
THE SPIRIT OF SWING IS ALIVE! – when the KING OF SWING ORCHESTRA, led by Peter Fleischhauer, steps
onto the stage, the AMERICAN SWING NIGHT begins like an explosion: brilliant, high-energy, and rousing.
An electrifying journey through the world of Benny Goodman and his contemporaries such as Glenn Miller, Count Basie, and Duke Ellington…
Hot swing classics like Sing, Sing, Sing, Bei Mir Bist Du Shein, In the Mood, or Don’t Be That Way unfold in their full power — swing in all its orchestral splendor.
16 soloists and Lady ANNA LARSEN (voc.) at the top of their game — they make the hall shake. Not a spark of routine, but pure joy of playing, visible passion, and an authenticity that jumps straight into the audience. This isn’t just playing swing — this is swing on fire. BURNING FOR SWING!
Every evening feels like a musical high-flying adventure: one mega hit follows the next, the sound unfolds like a whirlwind and catapults the audience
straight into the swing universe. For two hours, the world seems to stand still — caught in the everlasting era of the great swing legends.
The AMERICAN SWING NIGHT is more than a concert:
it is an experience, a journey through time, a firework of emotions — “Burning for Swing!”
