For over thirty years the Pasadena Roof Orchestra has
delighted audiences all over the world with its mix of swing and
hot dance music. Swing is much more than a musical genre, it
personifies a lust for life, with its infectious beat. Its roots
lie in the pre war dance bands, and the roaring twenties which
inspired the later big swing bands. In contrast to many other
musical genres swing has never really gone out of fashion over the
decades, particularly in recent years. The Pasadena Roof Orchestra
has played an important role in this resurgence of
popularity.
Today, not only is the orchestra bringing its music to young
audiences all over the world, it is introducing new generations of
young musicians to the music. The reputation of the orchestra is as
legendary in its own right, as the bands from the 1920's and 1930's
that inspired it.
40 recorded vinyl LPs, singles, CDs, and DVDs containing over 300
titles have been released since 1974. The timeless sound of the
orchestra has led to ever more recordings. In Japan the orchestra's
first five vinyl albums have recently been rereleased in a CD
format.
