Enjoy a Fall Sunday with a  late afternoon jazz concert with classic swing tunes, lovely ballads, a wine tasting, and  light refreshments.

The Itty Bitty Big Band is a new project by the well-known Harbor Jazz Ensemble. As the name suggests, this group plays cool arrangements reminiscent of a Big Band, and at the same time showcases all the musicians’ improvisational skills and their joy in sharing this truly original American art form called Jazz.

The playlist is full of classic swing tunes done in lively and upbeat renditions such as The Way You Look Tonight and Beautiful Love, perennial favorites like Summertime, and beautiful ballads such as The Very Thought of You featuring their trombone player. Get your groove on with tunes like The Preacher and Blue Trane, and Latin standards such as Speak Low, all tailored specifically for a jazz combo featuring three horns. The Itty Bitty Big Band is Carvell Halloway on trumpet, Dereck McLyn on tenor saxophone, Albert Elegino on trombone, Taura Smith on keyboard, Liz Lubin on bass guitar, and Steve Stone on drums.

Light refreshments will be served and the art gallery at Collage will be open before the show.
