Southminster United Church 15 Aylmer Avenue, Ottawa
The NCCB is thrilled to be back in support of the Southminster congregation, as we salute the arrival of Spring with a potpourri of tunes from the Great American Songbook.
With a delightful bouquet of medleys and arrangments, Maestro Rocco Romeo leads our 50+ brass and wind ensemble in performances of some of the greatest names in show business, including Irving Berlin, Cole Porter, Leroy Anderson as well as George Gershwin. The music will delight and entertain the young and young at heart, from 8 to 80!
Our featured number for the concert will be "Rhapsody in Blue", George Gershwin's composition for Piano solo and Jazz Band. Our featured artist on the Heintzman grand piano is Avery Vine, and the band does equal justice to this arrangement for concert band, inspired by the work of Ferdie Grofé for the Paul Whiteman Orchestra when it debuted in 1924.
Bid adieu to wintry blasts and icy paths, as we warm your heart with tunes for the Broadway stage and the concert halls of times past. This is a family friendly program and children 12 and under are free. Seats for students seniors and adults are $10. All tickets at the door.
Don't miss this opportunity to support the Southminster congregation in its various ministries, as we usher in Spring in all its promise of renewal.
