  • Description
  • Personnel
Join OFAM favorites Ken Peplowski and The Emerald City Jazz Kings as they bring the unforgettable sound of The King of Swing, Benny Goodman, to life at The Shedd! Noted New York Times music critic John S. Wilson called Ken Peplowski "a clarinetist with a Benny Goodman tone and a Buddy DeFranco style” and Mel Tormé said, “There have been too few clarinetists to fill the void that Goodman left. Ken Peplowski is most certainly one of those few. The man is magic." Since Ken was a member of Goodman’s working orchestra, the comparison is not surprising. If you’re into swing, you don’t want to miss this one.
