Introducing the Johannesburg Big Band...
![Introducing the Johannesburg Big Band...](https://biz-file.com/c/1210/115763.jpg)
The 18-member troupe has a repertoire of over 800 of the most celebrated big band charts. Started by the best musicians in South Africa, wanting to get a regular big band going in Johannesburg, their vision is to bring back the big band sound to Jozi life, and give Johannesburg its first dedicated permanent big band. Having worked with vocalists - Tim Moloi, Tamara Dey, Kahn Morbee and Nomfundo Xaluva, the Johannesburg Big Band is a very versatile ensemble.
