Music at First - Session III

TONIGHT - April 16, 2010 at 7:30PM

Cellist/vocalist/composer JODY REDHAGE (last Sunday's Offertory musician) and her band FIRE IN JULY headline the third concert in the inaugural season of MUSIC AT FIRST, an exciting new music series at First Presbyterian Church in Brooklyn Heights.

The band, consisting of Jody Redhage on voice/cello/compositions, Ken Thomson on clarinets, Alan Ferber on trombone, Tom Beckham on vibraphone, and Fred Kennedy on drums and percussion, meld the detail and finesse of chamber music with the energy and drive of jazz improvisation.  With tinges of Medieval chanson and hints of Kurt Weill, Jody's compositions create a captivating blend of genres that simply comes across as her own unique voice.

Tonight at 7:30 p.m. in the Sanctuary. $10 suggested admission per person which will be collected at the door.
