Spring is in the air, the birds are singing, the days start to feel longer: it must be fast approaching the Concert and Big Band’s annual Gulbenkian Theatre concert.
Sax appeal: Concert Band players
The wonderfully creative technical staff at the Gulbenkian are planning a dazzling array of lighting arrangements for the gig – we can’t reveal the plans here, but they promise to be fantastic – based around the pieces in the programme, with suitable themed lighting where appropriate.
Singers Ruby and Jo are in fine voice – Jo recently sang at the first ‘Jazz @ 5’ of the term last Wednesday, and sounds in fine form.
Musical entertainment from Sing! and one of the classical guitar scholars for the pre-concert foyer entertainment is in place.
All in all, it promises to be a great occasion: make sure you’ve got your tickets, they’re selling fast!
