The Wintergarten Orchestra is an eleven piece ensemble  performing the memorable melodies of the Jazz Age in the  1920's and 30's. With male and female vocalists and  original period instruments the Wintergarten Orchestra  recreates the syncopated music of this golden age with  style and humour. Bill Beecroft is the leader/trombonist  along with the superb vocal and acting talents of Ted  Atherton and Tanya Wills. With the stellar musicianship of  our orchestra including two violins, banjo, tuba, reeds,  trumpet, piano and percussion, we salute the great bands  of this era. Our musical inspiration comes from European  and American bands and vocalists such as Ray Noble, Duke  Ellington, Leo Riesman, Jack Hylton, Fletcher Henderson,  Kurt Weil, Jean Goldkette, Edith Piaf, Lee Wiley, Cab  Calloway, Helen Kane, Louis Armstrong, Al Bowley and  composers such and Cole Porter, George Gershwin and many  others.  

 The Wintergarten Orchestra blends the music of these  great artists into an enjoyable two hours of toe tapping  entertainment. So leave your troubles outside and  willkommen to the Wintergarten Orchestra.
