THE BIG BANDEXPRESS celebrates its 6th birthday with a big bash at Asia Society Hong Kong Center!


There is nothing quite like the sound of a big band with its bright, crisp trumpets, warm trombones, and shimmering saxophones, all held together by a driving rhythm section of piano, guitar, bass, and drums. The phenomenally successful swing and dance bands of the 1930s gradually incorporated influences from Latin American and rock styles, and today, the big band sound regularly finds its way into TV, movie scores, and mainstream artists. The Big BandExpress, founded in 2016 by Trombonist Oliver Cura, continues the tradition. It is a 12 to 20 piece jazz orchestra, consisting of HongKong based musicians playing a wide range of musical styles as well as its own special arrangements of jazz standards and originals.

Deborah Mannas, Dennis Chan, Krystal Diaz, Hulman Soaloon, Francis Wong and Jobelle Ubalde will lend their sublime vocals to the evening.

Seats are limited due to social distancing and the show typically sells out, so get your tickets now!
