Perth Citizens' Band

We're back for another season of free concerts in the park!

... and here it is! A SALUTE TO THE BIG BANDS The Perth Citizens’ Band, Canada’s longest continuous town band, will be holding its annual spring concert titled A SALUTE TO THE BIG BANDS. The concert will feature a selection of well-known tunes from the turn of the century up to the 1960's, including blues, Dixieland, jazz and ballads, all popular with the Big Band Sound. Included are tunes by big band orchestras such as Duke Ellington and Glen Miller, and by popular compo...sers such as Cole Porter. This musical afternoon gives the audience a chance to chase away the winter blues and swing into spring. The concert will be held on Sunday April 6 starting at 2PM at the Perth Legion Hall, 26 Beckwith St. E., Perth. Admission is $5 per person and $10 for families and includes light refreshments. For more information visit the band’s website www.perthband.ca or call conductor Brian Tackaberry at 613-256-4221.
