A brief introduction
of Thomson Jazz Club
he
Thomson Jazz Club was formed in 1993 by Eddie Chan Fook Pong as
an activity of the Thomson Community Club. The club aims to promote
jazz listenership in Singapore and to provide
facilities for playing jazz.
Our Bands
Beginning with
only one band, Thomson Big Band, the Club
has grown substantially in the last years. Membership has swelled
to more than 100 members and we now have 3 performing big bands.
Our second band, Thomson Swing Band, is
fast developing a reputation of its own since making its public
debut in December 1999. Thomson Jive is
also progressing fast since forming in 2001.
Our
activities
Equipped with 2 air-conditioned
rehearsal studios, a performance auditorium and AV
facilities,
the Club is busiest on Sunday afternoons
when our big bands rehearse.
Our Bands perform
frequently at public venues and for commercial engagements. We also
seek opportunities to perform overseas. We frequently organise workshops
and courses for our members to hone their playing skills and musical
knowledge.
