SUMMARY:Jazz Night with Sounds of Italy: Scanzonati
DESCRIPTION:Sounds of Italy is a musical festival celebrating Italian music excellence in the Greater Boston area. The inventive and contemporary vision of young Italian talents living in the United States blends with the rhythmic and harmonic roots of the Bel Paese\, with a clear American jazz influence — a mix that generates a new way of making \nmusic. A concept developed by Pescara-native singer and composer Stefano Marchese\, Sounds of Italy was made possible with the collaboration and support of big names on the international music scene such as Marco Pignataro\, Andrea Pejrolo\, and Tino D’Agostino\, as well as the Consul General of Italy in Boston\, and Bostoniano founder Nicola Orichuia. Since its first edition\, more than 200 artists have participated to the past 3 editions\, including international artists such as Chiara Civello\, Riccardo Del Fra and George Garzone. The audience members will be offered a taste of the elective affinities of the Mediterranean spirit mixed in with the innovative outlook of jazz. \nChildren’s Programming: 6:00 – 8:00 p.m.\n(rain location: St Stephen’s Church)

SUMMARY:Swing Favorites in the Park: Eight to the Bar
DESCRIPTION:Listening to Eight to the Bar is a lot like driving along a time-warped highway precisely halfway between Count Basie’s Kansas City and Fats Waller’s Harlem\, where the car radio picks up everything from Jumpin’ at the Woodside to The Andrews Sisters. Their material\, like their outlandish wardrobes and onstage choreo\, is a colorful mix of forties jazz and swing\, fifties jump blues\, and their own swing-influenced tunes. With their female vocals\, saxophone (their sax player\, Collin Tilton is the original sax and flute player In Van Morrison’s band\, and appears on Morrison’s quadruple-platinum-selling Moondance album)\, guitar\, bass\, keyboards and drums\, this unique sextet pack a musical and visual wallop not seen in New England since the group’s inception in 1975. Since that time they have released 12 CDs and have excited audiences from Europe to the Caribbean. The band has been named “Best Band 2014” by Hartford Magazine and recently had the honor of touring the Republic of Georgia (near Russia) at the invitation of the U.S. Embassy there. Currently the group has just released its 12th CD\,Bring It & Swing It! (rain date / location: Tues July 26th\, The Prado)
