Alex Mendham- Whistling in the Dark
Alex Mendham and His Orchestra play dance music of the 1920s and 1930s with unmatched authenticity and spirit. Based in London, Alex Mendham's Orchestra enjoys a busy working schedule in that city's East End, with engagements at such prestigious venues as the Savoy, the Floridita, and regular broadcasts on BBC Radio. The lush period arrangements played to perfection and recorded with astonishing depth and clarity vividly recall the Art Deco era. The orchestra's youthful enthusiasm ensures that the music remains as vibrant and fresh today as it ever was. Selections range from hot to sweet and include "Bugle Call Rag," "Red Lips, Kiss My Blues Away," "Lullaby of the Leaves," "'Tain't No Sin (To Dance Around in Your Bones)," "Home," "Bend Down, Sister," and more than a dozen more. 66 minutes and 20 selections in all, including a 20-page illustrated booklet with detailed notes.
