The Roy Frank Orchestra

Do you remember the era of great German television, dance and show orchestras? Would your guests enjoy such a musical journey back through time that makes their feet dance? A great evening out needs not only the best location, an elegant ambience and fantastic food but, even more importantly, the ideal music.

The Roy Frank Orchestra offers both you and your guests music perfectly tailored to suit your specific wishes. Fantastic dance music is presented in the traditional way, from swinging slow fox to the popular twist or cha-cha-cha, from elegant background music for dinner to that classic big band sound for dancing.

The permanent members of the orchestra belong to the crème de la crème of Hamburg’s music scene and are comprised of five saxophones, three trumpets, three trombones, piano, bass and drums along with band leader Roy Frank. The musicians create an authentic sound, different from other dance bands, through their great enjoyment of this music and their high artistic standards. The Roy Frank Orchestra plays everything live and performs German and American hits in the official dance tempi.

The Roy Frank Orchestra plays the music of German radio and television big bands of the 50s and 60s. The sounds of Max Greger, James Last and Erwin Lehn make up the program of Hamburg’s new big band. The orchestra provides the soundtrack to good old family television evenings with cheese and crackers and plates of hors d’oeuvres.

Their own show with hits from the big screen and television as well as the classic hits from the times of the economic boom of the 50’s ‘til today excites audiences; at the same time, the orchestra can also accompany national and international artists.

This dance orchestra is not only a treat to the ears due to their unique sound, but is also great on the eyes through their elegant appearance. Next to the gleaming sound of the orchestra the silver saxophone of Roy Frank shines in the spotlights of the ballroom when the band leader blows popular melodies from his horn. Pure energy!
