Marsalis Swing Symphony
About this event
Wynton Marsalis’s Swing Symphony performed by the Detroit Symphony Orchestra and the Paradise Theatre Big Band.
What to Expect
- 1.Plan extra time for parking and security near Orchestra Hall; downtown Detroit can be busy before shows, so give yourself a cushion to find your seat and soak in the hall's acoustics.
- 2.Dress smart-casual; the venue's concert-hall vibe is polished but comfortable clothes work, and comfortable shoes are a good idea for a longer program.
- 3.You’ll hear a dynamic blend of jazz swing and orchestral textures as Marsalis's Swing Symphony is performed by the Detroit Symphony Orchestra along with the Paradise Theatre Big Band, with notable brass and woodwind solos.
- 4.Concessions are available inside the venue, and there are plenty of dining options along Woodward Avenue if you want to eat before or after the show—consider a pre-show dinner to time with the performance.
- 5.If you need accessibility seating or other services, contact the box office in advance; Orchestra Hall is designed for accessibility and has clear sightlines from multiple levels.
