THE lights soften, the mood settles.

An audience waits for that first moment of sound. The big band is poised, relaxed, but with eyes anxious for the lead.

Then, as if giving body to an echo, the murmured notes of Moonlight Serenade...and the night, it seems, is suddenly full and timeless.

Recapture the sounds of a bygone era as the Nick Ross Orchestra presents an evening of classic big band sounds of the 1940s at the Kenneth More Theatre, Oakfield Road, Ilford, on Sunday, 3pm and 7.30pm.

All seats �13.50.
