Jazz At the Movies

Dorian Mode Quintet
Many of the great jazz hits were first heard in the cinema and many of these songs not only won academy awards but went on to become jazz classics performed by leading artists such as Tony Bennett, Mel Torme, Frank Sinatra and many others. A natural entertainer, Dorian Mode and his swinging band will take you through “Jazz at The Movies” with lots of laughs and movie trivia along the way.

The show is highly entertaining, and is peppered with fascinating anecdotes about the history of the songs, composers and lyricists and the artists who made these songs famous. You’ll hear such classics as: Charade, Days of Wine and Roses, The Shadow of Your Smile and many more!

Dorian Mode is both a multi-award winning jazz musician and celebrated author of laugh-out-loud books: A Café in Venice (Penguin) and Mozart Maulers (Penguin) which have been bestsellers here and in Europe. Dorian’s has been awarded three ABC Music Awards. He has recorded over seven CDs and over the years has performed at numerous jazz festivals, theatres and concerts including the Sydney Opera House.

This is a show not to be missed!
