Hello World,
It's me...back again for another Edition of NOTES!
First of all, October 21st, at the Luther Burbank Performing Arts Center in Santa Rosa, Ca.!!! A TRIBUTE TO NELSON RIDDLE with the Santa Rosa Symphony with guest vocalists, Rachael Price and Michael Civisca. The best of Riddle's arrangements for Sinatra, Nat Cole, Ella, Dean, Ronstadt and also his great Instrumentals...LIFE IS JUST A BOWL OF CHERRIES, BROTHER JOHN, LISBON ANTIGUA, LET YOURSELF GO and many more.
October 6th I did the Opening Concert with the Carolina Pops in Greensboro with perhaps one of the best Pops Shows I've ever conducted: SPECTRUM. The best of Motown, great singing, great choreography, great rhythm section, great arrangements. I'm telling everyone I can about this group. The audience went wild!
October 13, we were in Long Island with Liza for a Benefit for CW Post at the Tilles Center. Once again, the audience was on their feet, applauding and screaming in the middle of songs. She's an amazing performer.
For you Angelenos, the Gene Krupa Band will be returning to Charley O's in the Valley on December 3rd. Make reservations NOW!
And last but not least...OCTOBER 24th, the Krupa Band will be at DILLON'S in NYC.
254 West 54th Street. 2 sets starting at 8 PM. New room, great Big Band...Come out and say Hi!
Until the next time...
Best to you all,
Mike Berkowitz
