Phil takes to the stage as clarinet soloist with a full set of brand new bespoke arrangements by Ronnie Bottomley. The programme will embrace many of Benny’s greatest hits including; 'Sing Sing Sing', 'Avalon', 'Bugle Call Rag', 'King Porter Stomp', 'Let’s Dance', 'Don’t Be That Way' and 'Rhapsody In Blue', celebrating the work’s Centennial year!
