For those who have been on recent Pacific Princess world cruises - what kind of dance music is there on board?

Is there a band that plays a variety of music in the evenings?? I know it is a small ship with limited venues.

 

 

 

Thanks!

We were on the 2018 Princess WC. They had a few different groups providing live music. One was David Craythorne, beloved director of the passenger choir, and an excellent pianist and singer. His "Send in the Clowns" moved me to tears. A duo called 2Kool  provided 80's-90's rock before supper. Her rendition of "Me & Bobby McGee" was a real crowd pleaser. 

 

The other so-called live music was a disappointment to me. They struck me as glorified karaoke because most of their accompaniment was canned. 

 

The 5 piece stage band was excellent. Hope they' still have it for the 2019 cruise.

No, sadly. We did have an  excellent violinist as one of guest performers and when we were in Venice, an operatic soprano and tenor came aboard for the evening, but there was no resident musician that specialized in the classics. We're trying Cunard for a 21 day this summer, hoping the music is of a more classical bent. 

 

But I'm a self-confessed musical snob so this probably wouldn't bother most folks.
