Jazz from Across the Pond

Jazz from Across the Pond
The Choral Society of Pensacola presents jazz from both sides of the Atlantic. The program showcases music by two British composers -- George Shearing's "Songs and Sonnets" and Bob Chilcott's "A Little Jazz Mass" -- and also features some jazz from the USA --songs by Strayhorn, Arlen/Mercer, and Dennis/Adair. A 100-voice chorus, conducted by artistic director Peter Steenblik, will perform with the acclaimed Guffman Trio, who will shine in a set of their own.
Enjoy a free preview of the concert on Zoom on Sunday, October 2 at 7 PM. It will include a 30-minute presentation illustrated with musical excerpts, followed by a 10-minute Q&A session.

The Guffman Trio is sponsored by Barbara Lewis and Sandy Spivey.
