Dan Gabel's High Society Orchestra
Authentic 11-piece hot jazz band featuring vocalist Elise Roth
Boston CD Release: "Business in F" - Hot Jazz of the Roaring 20's
Dan Gabel's High Society Orchestra is the premiere large ensemble hot jazz group in New England. Founded in 1976 by Warren "Bud" Trow, trombonist, arranger, and jazz historian Dan Gabel took the baton in 2006. Hot jazz numbers and rarities are mixed with dance music and original Gabel arrangements. The band is influenced by the unique music of Duke Ellington, Fletcher Henderson, Archie Bleyer, Bill Challis, Bix Beiderbecke, Louis Armstrong, Cab Calloway, and Paul Whiteman. Vocalist Elise Roth lends her expert talents on vocal numbers of the era, bringing back rarely heard verses and a classic vintage singing style. The band sports a period look with tuxedos, red vests and bowties, banners with the band logo, and a bastion of vintage 1920's curios, including megaphones, temple blocks, mutes, hats, and clarinet trios....
