Callum Au Big Band

Sing Seven Seas is the culmination of these long-standing musical relationships, pushing world-class musicians to their technical and expressive limits with 14 brand new pieces for jazz orchestra that crackle with Callum’s signature directness and flair for melody.

With a host of incredible soloists (and a few surprising instruments!), this promises to be an unmissable evening!

This event will last approximately 2 hours, including an interval.
