Red Dress Ball with the Eric Felten Jazz Orchestra (REPLACEMENT)

We are thrilled to be bringing back the Eric Felten Jazz Orchestra to Glen Echo on Saturday, February 9th for our annual Red Dress Ball. Proceeds for the evening will go to American Heart Association! PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD THAT THIS EVENT IS ON! THE ORIGINAL FACEBOOK EVENT IS SOMEHOW GONE This classic swing dance band features the original Big Band arrangements of Count Basie, Billy May, and Nelson Riddle in their performance of music from the great bands of the Big Band Era -- Duke Ellington, Benny Goodman, Glenn Miller, Harry James, Woody Herman, Lionel Hampton, and more. Come hear what led the Washington Post to exclaim that they "set a standard not easily matched" or what led PBS to feature the EFJO on their The Big Band Sound of WWII special! This is one evening you do NOT want to miss!!! Don your favorite red threads (casual or dressy -- you decide!), grab your dancing shoes, and round up your favorite dance partners for an evening of great music and fine dancing!!
