Saxophonist Piet Klinger has been living his passion for swing music for many years. After beginnings in the late 80's in his first band with drummer Tommie Harris, he has been playing internationally with his swing band for many years now on occasion, especially for swing dance parties of the swing revival scene. For many years he has been leading a very popular jam session in the traditional jazz cellar "Cave" in Heidelberg. Accompanied by a professional rhythm section, musicians and vocalists who have succumbed to swing fever meet every Thursday to get to know each other in spontaneous interplay, to inspire each other, and to build up to ecstatic solos. At these sessions we revive the great spirit and glamour, the immortal songs and the infectious rhythms of the legendary swing era of the 30s and 40s at the Orange Peel.
"Jamming the Swing" mesmerizing , thrilling hot live music! Swing that tempts you to bob and dance along. Guest musicians are welcome!
Piet Klinger Sax and Moderation "It don`t mean a thing if it aint got that swing"
