Clarinettist Bernard Berkhout formed the Swing Orchestra in 2008. The big band consists of 18 musicians and focuses entirely on 1930s jazz. The Swing Orchestra is in high demand both in the Netherlands and abroad. Lindy Hoppers love to dance to this style of music and the Swing Orchestra is followed by Lindy Hoppers from all over Europe.
The music of Bernard Berkhout’s Swing Orchestra is based entirely on the ideas and arrangements of Benny Goodman. The orchestra comprises only professional musicians and reproduces the ambience and style of the thirties with exactly the same line-up as the traditional Goodman big band: 4 saxes, 3 trumpets, 2 trombones and a rhythm section – but now led by the world’s best contemporary swing clarinettist, Bernard Berkhout. Benny Goodman’s music is brought out of the 1930s and into the 21st century in an incomparable manner!
