Kinds of Blue: spring concert by the University Concert and Big Bands

Jedi Knights, Jets and Sharks and twentieth-century American life are all brought to vivid life by the University Concert and Big Bands next week, as they come together for their annual spring concert on Friday 17 March.

Student and staff musicians will fill Colyer-Fergusson Hall with music from ‘Star Wars,’ ‘West Side Story’ and George Gershwin’s timeless hymn to New York, ‘Rhapsody in Blue,’ in a Grammy-award-winning arrangement by Gordon Goodwin, all under the baton of conductor Ian Swatman.

With only a few tickets left, it promises to be a packed house for a riotous blend of film scores, classic big band swing and Hollywood glamour.
