The Australians è una swing band che riunisce esponenti di spicco della scena musicale australiana come l’arrangiatore e compositore Dan Barnett e il leggendario trombettista Bob Henderson. Ospite per tutti i 10 giorni della 28esima edizione di JazzAscona, il gruppo si annuncia ancora più elettrizzante con la presenza (nella seconda metà del festival) della cantante Emma Pask, “the greatest gift to Australian Jazz Vocals in the last decade”, letteralmente “il più gran regalo al jazz canoro australiano dell’ultimo decennio”, secondo James Morrison, uno dei jazzisti australiani più noti di sempre. Vincitrice del Mo Award 2006 come Jazz Vocalist of the Year, Emma Pask si è esibita in giro per il mondo. La performance con la BBC Concert Orchestra a Londra, con la Shanghai Symphony Orchestra in Cina e, ancora, in Italia, Laos, Nuova Zelanda e Singapore sono solo alcuni degli highlight della sua carriera.
The Australians is a swing band made up of famous musicians from the Australian music scene, such as composer Dan Barnett and the legendary trumpeter Bob Henderson. The band will be at JazzAscona during the whole ten days and is expected to put on an electrifying show, also thanks to the presence of vocalist Emma Pask, “the greatest gift to Australian Jazz Vocals in the last decade” according to James Morrison, one of Australia's most famous jazzists. Winner of the Mo Award 2006, as Jazz Vocalist of the Year, Emma Pask has performed around the world. Some of her career highlights: performances together with the BBC Concert Orchestra in London, with the Shanghai Symphony Orchestra in China and shows throughout Italy, Laos, New Zealand, and Singapore.
