August 13, 2011, a great time for a trip to Paradise in the Annapolis Valley, to hear the Annapolis Big Band perform the great tunes of the 30’s and 40’s outside under the stars for your listening and dancing pleasure.  Beginning at 7:30 pm on the grounds at Ellenhurst 10252 Highway #1 Paradise the band and singer Donna Lynn Holmes will be featured in the  annual Moonlight Concert.  Come bring lawn chairs and perhaps a picnic and enjoy this live performance of the fabulous music as played by the Big Bands of the time such as Count Basie, Duke Ellington Tommy & Jimmy Dorsey, Glenn Miller and others.

A donation in support of the Paradise Community Hall will be appreciated.  Free parking is available on the grounds at Ellenhurst and on site transportation is provided for people needing assistance.  The Moonlight Concert is a magical evening of music between 7:30pm and 11 pm  in a wonderful outdoor setting.  Rain date is the following evening.  All are welcome to come and enjoy this fine musical group performing the great tunes we all know from the 30’s and 40’s.  Further information 902-584-3570.  See you there.

Jazzy Jems

Every now and then I come across a great Youtube Video, cartoon, or article on internet pertaining to jazz music. In my Jazzy Jems entry I’ll share some of these with you!

What could be a better start than some good old Louis Armstrong! Enjoy!

Welcome to Annapolis Big Band’s Blog

Welcome to our Annapolis Big Band Blog. With various authors, we hope this blog will develop into an informative and fun collection of musical musings!

2008-09-14-040

In starting this off on the right foot, I’m going to first direct you to an entry from my personal blog… Music in a Small Town.

Now and then, through our blog, we will introduce you to our little part of the world and refer you to other blogs or sites where you can learn more. For today, I direct you to A Happy Annapolitan, musings of a lifelong Annapolitan (that’s me) who loves Annapolis Royal!

Until next time…

Trish
