Southern Maltings Welcomes back Hertfordshire Big Band
We’re thrilled to welcome Hertfordshire Big Band to Southern Maltings—an award-winning ensemble that’s been lighting up the UK jazz scene since 2003. With a rich history spanning over two decades, this dynamic community jazz orchestra brings a bold and brilliant sound that celebrates the very best of big band music.
Known for their passion, precision, and ever-evolving repertoire, the band performs a vibrant mix of styles from the roaring 1920s to the grooves of today. Their library boasts over 500 charts, covering swing, Latin, and funk, with music from legends like Buddy Rich, Count Basie, Stan Kenton, Duke Ellington, Patrick Williams, and the WDR Big Band.

Their vocal repertoire is equally dazzling, featuring timeless classics from Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra, Natalie Cole, Diana Krall, Peggy Lee, and more.
With gold and platinum accolades from the National Concert Band Festival and collaborations with UK jazz icons such as Mike Lovatt and Pete Long, The Hertfordshire Big Band is not just a group of talented musicians—they’re a powerhouse of creativity, community, and musical excellence.
Join us for an unforgettable evening of rhythm, soul, and swing as Southern Maltings proudly hosts this exceptional band. Let the music move you!
The event is being held on the first floor of the Southern Maltings building. Please check with the event organisers if using stairs is problematic.
