BIG BAND ORCHESTRA SWINGS INTO BRICK Added ›06/11/2008 1:53:59 PM

BRICK - Mayor Stephen C. Acropolis has announced that the Brick Township Recreation Department will host a concert featuring the popular orchestra Sentimental Journey on Saturday, June 14 at 7 pm at Bayside Park.  Under the direction of Brick resident and trumpeteer Frank Richetti, the orchestra recreates the glory days of the big band era with music of the 1930’s and 1940’s.  The orchestra is comprised of area residents, many of whom performed with some of the big names of the 40’s including Glen Miller, Harry James, Les Brown, Charlie Spivak, Nelson Riddle and Tommy Dorsey. 

 

The concert is free and reservations are not required, however those attending should bring their own lawn chairs.  The program is provided in part by a grant administered by the Ocean County Cultural and Heritage Commission in conjunction with the New Jersey Council on the Arts/Department of State, a partner agency of the National Endowment of the Arts.  For more information, please contact the Brick Recreation Department at 732-262-1044.
