Swinging on The Strand

About this event

Enjoy an evening of the timeless swing classics performed by acclaimed vocalist Peter Snipp, the best-kept secret of London’s top party organisers – and all in the evocative candlelit setting of St Mary le Strand, James Gibbs’ baroque masterpiece and arguably the most beautiful of the Queen Anne Churches.

Peter’s performance includes the very greatest songs made famous by the Rat Pack and others, including:

• Let there be love
• Fly me to the moon
• Come fly with me
• Mack the knife
• Something stupid
• What a wonderful world
• That’s amore

...and more.

Starting at 8.30pm, and lasting around 70 minutes (without interval), the performance gives concert-goers time to have dinner before the performance and still comfortably get the train home afterwards!
