19-Piece Compaq Big Band w/ Vocalist Ed Scheer at FREE Norwood Winter Concert Series

After what we hope will be a joyous holiday season for you and yours, want something to look forward to in the dead of New England winter? Be part of an extremely rare ‘astronomical jazz event’!&nbsp;The planets that will be in alignment only on Sunday January 28th when the 19-piece Compaq Big Band makes their debut at the wonderful Town of Norwood Winter Concert Series are: a) We’ll have Ed Scheer from Boston’s ‘The Love Dogs’ as our vocalist, b) It’s in a gorgeous 850-seat theater, and c) &nbsp;Admission is *** FREE *** The show is a matinee – 2:00pm-4:00pm. &nbsp;&nbsp;The location is the impressive Paul M. Alberta Performing Arts Center at Norwood High School.&nbsp;That is located at 245 Nichols Street in Norwood, Massachusetts. Doors Open 1:30pm - all seating is General Admission. The program will be a varied mix of exciting instrumentals and vocals – many you will recognize as big band standards, plus some that will be refreshing, fun twists on classic jazz titles.&nbsp;There will be selections from the big bands of Count Basie, Buddy Rich, Maynard Ferguson, Tom Kubis, Gordon Goodwin, and Chris Walden.&nbsp;And, Ed Scheer will be croonin’ out classic Sinatra hits arranged for ‘Ol’ Blue Eyes’ by the masters of that trade, a little somethin’ from Bobby Darin, a few updated standards as performed by Michael Buble, AND a few custom arrangements of hits by ‘The Love Dogs’ done by the band’s own Scott Tringali. &nbsp; This seasonal series is presented by the Norwood Concerts on the Common Committee.&nbsp;The band has been privileged to be selected by them to appear at their hugely popular outdoor summer concert series in downtown Norwood.
