Tread the light music fantastic with The Puppini Sisters when they come to The Hexagon this autumn

AN EVENING of light music is coming to The Hexagon this autumn, thanks to The Puppini Sisters.

They are touring a brand-new show featuring a combination of their own arrangements of classic songs from the 30s to the 50s, jazzy reinventions of pop hits, self-penned original songs and, from their latest album Dance, Dance, Dance, a selection of strictly swing dance style arrangements.

The sisters say this mix will get everyone up on their feet to songs such as Sing Sing Sing, I Wanna Dance With Somebody and 9 To 5.

The Puppini Sisters were conceived 18 years ago, by Marcella Puppini and since then, they have been awarded Gold and Multi-Platinum discs, have collaborated with Michael Bublé and have performed all over the world and appeared on some of the most prestigious stages across the world, including Glastonbury.

Marcella Puppini says: “We live very much in the present, and consider ourselves as 21st Century women, totally absorbed in a world of modern technology and women’s rights.

“But we also like to play dress-up and sing old songs with a new spin or new songs with an old spin. I think our enduring popularity, as well as our enduring love for what we do, is a combination of two factors: swing is infectious and cool, with its intricate syncopated rhythms and with its echoes of fabulous dance parties; and harmony singing, in my opinion, resonates deeply with everybody – it’s as if it speaks directly to the soul.”
