''Robbie is one of the most versatile performers of our times - a truly outstanding pop star, who was born to sing swing songs. We are thrilled to be involved in this project and to have secured the global rights to Robbie's much anticipated return to swing.
''This promises to be a fantastic performance and a must-see event for Robbie's millions of fans around the world, as well as for anyone that enjoys great swing and big band performances.''
