Following its success last year, the Festival Jazz à Saint-Germain-des-Prés Paris is returning to the CCI for another Big Swing Ball. Re-live the ambience of the big American jazz bands of the 50s! L’Esprit Jazz Big Band, composed of three trumpeters, three trombonists, four saxophonists, a piano-double bass–drum trio and one vocalist, will keep you dancing as they revisit classics from the great orchestras of Count Basie, Duke Ellington or Glenn Miller. Swing your skirts and dance around the beautiful courtyard of the CCI. Create the atmosphere of a village fête, come dressed up or coiffed as you would have in the fifties and you will be offered a reduced-price ticket.
