The Springfield (VT) Community Band, under the direction of Nick Pelton, will present a concert at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday, July 18, at the Hartness House, 109 Front St (formerly 30 Orchard St), Springfield, VT.
The focus of this concert will be JAZZ! Among the offerings will be a medley of songs pulled together in tribute to Louis “Satchmo” Armstrong, as well as “A Night in Tunisia” by John “Dizzy” Gillespie, and a medley of music by Henry Mancini including “The Pink Panther” and “Peter Gunn”.
In addition, the Band’s Jazz Combo will perform. And, to top off the evening, percussionist Clay Thompson will demonstrate his mastery of his craft in the often explosive “Concerto for Drumset,” composed by Larry Neeck.
In the event of rain, we will move inside the Hartness House Inn, and the show will go on as planned!
(Please note that the program could change due to unforeseen circumstances.)
