"Led by Tim Oram, the Sydney Jazz Orchestra was superb in executing a repertoire from the 1920's inspired film The Great Gatsby. Their professionalism and seamless performances were well received by the guests at this extravagant private event held at the Australian Technology Park, Sydney. Our headline act Tina Arena was brilliantly accompanied by the Sydney Jazz Orchestra and led beautifully by Tim."

“The Sydney Jazz Orchestra played at our black tie event - first the big band, then their ensemble. These guys really swing. Tim rehearsed the band with us for two special songs which he had done special arrangements for, and they went beautifully. The whole band and vocalists worked hard throughout to deliver great entertainment for our guests, who were blown away. We had several musicians attending our event, and they all commented on the quality playing. Thanks Tim, you were a pleasure to work with in the final organisation for our event.”

"Swing on This"
"The Sydney Jazz Orchestra ranks amongst the finest large jazz ensembles anywhere. Guided by the leadership and writing skills of Tim Oram, the SJO presents artistically and emotionally charged music that resonates with audiences. I was fortunate to share the stage with these first rate musicians and truly look forward to performing with them again."
