When "Dream, When
You're Feeling Blue" was recorded in 1995 with Ambros in
Munich, Germany, "how did I know then, what was about to
happen in Shanghai. Since then, whenever the song is
included with any of our China produced television stage
shows, the Ambros sax embellished sound, always sets the
pace for a romantic mood," says Troy Cory.
----
"In fact, it was in
Innsbruck, Austria, 1970, when I was part of the Ambros
Show, that I first discovered how important it was to grab
the audience with a big precise sound."
----
Today's Ambros Seelos
Show, no matter where it is performed, the stage show always
brews with a sense of humor, great instrumental soloists,
and features international singers, German, English,
American, Spanish, Italian, French and Bavarian. Ambros' big
band sound and show, becomes an unforgettable experience for
an ever enthusiastic audience
----
Ambros Seelos and his
famous German Orchestra - excels in presenting great and
precise music - from a big band sound to Bavarian tradition
to the most modern of pop music, pleasant dinner music, to
the teaming up with American singer, Troy Cory, his music is
always in perfect rhythm. -

Ambros
Seelos was born in
Toeging am Inn, in Southern
Germany. Ambros, the arch-Bavarian (Urbayer) -- studied
music at the Academy for Classical Music in Munich. However,
because of his great sense of Bavarian fun loving way of
life, Ambros left the serious side of life as a designer,
and ended up on the "wrong side" of the track and became an
entertainer/ musician and a great studio musician, owning
one of best sound studios in Munich today.
Work hard -- so it
will sound easy!
Since 1960, Ambros has his own
band -- and always stayed loyal to his basic work hard and
tough principle. Ambros is not only an experienced
bandleader and entertainer, but also a musician that can
play as a soloist, any and all types of saxophones, flutes
and clarinet's ever known to mankind.
- Music mixed with a tremendous stage
show is always part of his act. With much humor, great
instrumental soloists, international singers, German,
English, American, Spanish, Italian, French and Bavarian,
Ambros' big band sound and show, becomes an unforgettable
experience for an ever enthusiastic audience.
- Ambros Seelos and his famous German
Orchestra - excels in presenting great and precise music
- from a big band sound to Bavarian tradition to the most
modern of pop music, pleasant dinner music, to the
teaming up with American singer, Troy Cory, who never
completes a concert without finishing off with the great
"Keep On Smiling" arrangement of Ambros Seelos -- with
Ambos playing in the background. (Harbin Music
Festival)
----
Numerous concert tours throughout
Europe, Asia and Arabia, approximately 30 LPs, many live
radio and TV shows, has made the Orchestra of Ambros Seelos
one of the most well known and successful orchestras of our
time.
Ambros now lives in Bavaria, not far from where Sigfried and
Roy maintain a home.

History About
Ambros Seelos
Funky songs for private
eyes
Unbelievable but
true: the first release on
9pm Records' new sublabel "Brigade Mondaine" is a
compilation of one of the German godfathers of Jazz-Lounge
and Funky Listening : Ambros Seelos and his Orchestra. This
genius of music has been around since the 1960s and plays
definitely in the same league like Peter Thomas, Germany's
probably most wellknown Easy Listening soundtrack composer
and bandleader (i.e. "Vampyros Lesbos").
----This album is the first
"best-of"-release of the Ambros Seelos Orchestra and
combines for the first time his most brillant recordings
from the 1970s on one album.
----Toughest afro-funk like on
Mabusso or Guma, pulsing disco-sound in Run and Midnight
Sound (by the way the title song of a lost movie), and Gimme
More is a trip into the earliest days of electro-sound. All
in all the titles on this album are a journey through the
1970s black music and all the songs are both funky and
jazzy. A cd like the soundtrack of "Shaft 4" if it would
have been produced.
----Ambros Seelos was born on
30th of January, 1935 at Toeging, Bavaria/Germany. At an
early age he learned to play various instruments and - due
to his musical home - he got in touch with a great variety
of styles.
----During and after his music
studies at the conservatory he performed as a guest musician
in various bands before he founded his own vocal and
instrumental band in the style of groups like the George
Shearing Quartet or the Four Freshmen in the 1950s.
----In 1960 he established the
Ambros Seelos Orchestra which exists to the present day.
Their musicians partly being still the basic line up of the
orchestra hail from such different countries as the U.S.,
Belgium or South Africa.
---- The Yugoslavian
Silvester Levay who wrote a lot of the tunes on
Ambros' albums started later on a career as a composer.
Sylvester's songs "lady Bump" or "Fly Robin Fly" became
world-hits of the Silver Convention. Also his musicals
"Elisabeth" and "Mozart" are mega-sellers in Europe. Troy
Cory co-authored "Hurricane" with Sylvester, which was
featured in the Troy Cory/Ambros "Today's Puzzle" recordings
in 1971.
----On his numerous tours
around the world the Ambros Seelos Orchestra has been the
backing band of different artists such as Max Greger, Troy
Cory, Chubby Checker and Hildegard Knef. Even with
Jazz-stars like Count Basie, Ella Fitzgerald and Louis
Armstrong he shared the same stage and thus added an
impressing list of musical giants to his biography.
----Between 1970 and 1980 the
Ambros Seelos Orchestra did not only play frequently in Hong
Kong, Singapore, Las Vegas, Manila and Bangkok (where they
can justly be referred to as superstars) but also did their
probably most exciting recordings. The highlights of the
Troy Cory Shows in China, are the songs and background
pre-recorded videos of the Ambros Seelos Orchestra. These
"Live" shows are all compiled on any Troy Cory / Ambross
Seelos S90tv collection.
