The name of the band, Rythme Mélodique, is a literal translation of what the group strives to present - tuneful melodies with an infectious beat. Borrowing from those recordings, the repertoire also includes a few French tunes and some less commonly heard songs, as well as plenty of favourite Swing Jazz standards. 

The outstanding musicians engaged for this concert are Paul Hendon – clarinet and saxophones, Paul Williams – clarinet and saxophone, Jo Bloomfield – piano, Dave Burrows – guitar and Helen Russell - double bas. This is a concert that promises to be a lively afternoon of entertainment that will tick all the boxes.

With the blending of the two lyrical Pauls (Williams & Hendon), backed by the pick of Southeast Queensland’s rhythm section,  that includes a couple of songsters who will bring the lyrics to life, this concert promises to be one that should not be missed.
