Fete Big Band - The Big Band

This evening will also mark the official release of the Fete Records Compilation 2025, which brings together many of their most popular hits – including recordings with Mette Nadja, the FETE Big Band, and Tight Lines.

The FETE Big Band combines a dozen wind instruments (trumpets, trombones, and saxophones) with a rhythm section of piano, guitar, double bass, and drums. Seventeen outstanding soloists will contribute to a grand and versatile sound for one evening only.

This time, the incredibly energetic ensemble will perform several big band classics that the members of the FETE Big Band have been eagerly anticipating. The program for this special evening will feature big band hits, as well as many great songs in old and new arrangements specially created for the wonderful singer Mette Nadja, and swinging original compositions by various band members.

The FETE Big Band presents another concert highlight with swinging grooves, dazzling solos, delicate ballads, and powerful shout choruses in full big band style.
