The Roy Vombrack Orchestra
The Roy Vombrack Orchestra is a synthesis of my expertise as one of Chicago's leading music arranger/producers and my experience as the original orchestra leader and music director of the legendary Rupert's 33 Club, a nightlife concept so exciting and overwhelmingly popular it was successfully recreated in Minneapolis, St. Louis, Atlanta and New York City.
The result? A memorable, live music experience featuring: Carefully-crafted music arrangements capturing the essence of your favorite songs. Performers hand-picked not only for their musical talents, but also for their ability to touch the emotions of our audiences with open, honest performances, not show-biz glitz or corn. The guidance of an experienced, enthusiastic orchestra leader dedicated to taking your party to the highest level of excitement and fun. The Roy Vombrack Orchestra's instrumentation and vocal versatility (12 members in all) allow us to feature a wide range of styles, from 40's Swing to contemporary Dance/R&B, along with the latest instrumentals and jazz classics: Our multi-talented singers (male vocalist, female vocalist, keyboard/vocal, guitar/vocal) can explore every expressive nuance, from soul-searching intimacy to high-energy exuberance. Our lively horn section (trumpet, alto sax, tenor sax) adds Big Band excitement to Swing selections and brassy punch to modern Rock, Funk and Dance tunes. Our three spirited violinists make ballads more beautiful, the Sinatra songs more romantic, and the Motown and Disco tunes more authentic with their energetic and soaring string lines. The versatile rhythm section (keyboards, guitar, bass, drums) lays down a rock- steady foundation covering the full range of styles and eras, ensuring a crowded and captivated dance floor.
