SWR Big Band & Curtis Stigers

Book tickets

My aim is to make the audience happy - this applies to Curtis Stigers in particular for The Las Vegas Show with the SWR Big Band. In addition to his own hits, the legendary Sinatra program from the Sands Casino in the 1960s will take center stage. For years, Stigers has been one of the best jazz singers in the world, winning many awards, above all because he manages like no other to conjure up Sinatra songs on stage without losing his own identity. Sinatra classics such as I've got you under my skin, Come fly with me, Fly me to the moon or his own No.1 hit I wonder why, the entertainer with the charismatic voice can simply sing anything! That's why Elton John, Eric Clapton, Prince, Bonnie Raitt and Rod Stewart brought him on stage.

The SWR Big Band has been one of the best big band jazz acts for decades. The multi Grammy-nominated musicians can somehow do it all - swing, jazz, pop or the original arrangements from Quincy Jones' Sands and the Count Basie Orchestra. And they manage the feat of not sounding like a mere copy. On the contrary, Curtis Stigers and the SWR Big Band - that is a journey through time in the here and now, that is great music and great entertainment. This is The Las Vegas Show, recommended from 8 to 88 and best enjoyed in pairs.
