Harmony In Harlem's repertoire covers the 1930s - 1960s with a strong emphasis on 1935-1945, the height of the swing era. Harmony In Harlem seek to give you a unique and thrilling experience, and a performance can be tailored to your specific needs from within the breadth of our repertoire of Ellingtonia.

Material prior to 1940 features a line-up of 4 saxophones/clarinets, 3 trumpets and 3 trombones. Later material requires a line-up of 5 reeds, 3 trombones and either 3 or 4 trumpets. If necessary, the orchestra can perform as a 14-piece ensemble but with a limited selection from the repertoire.
