Reunion Jazz Band returns Feb. 12

the Reunion Jazz Band

performs

2 - 4 pm, Sunday February 12th
Payson Community Presbyterian Church
800 West Main Street

Mainstream jazz and some BeBop played the way you remembered.
Music from the glory years of jazz, performed by experienced musicians.

Ken Hales - trumpet & flugelhorn
Clark Furlong - trombone
Chuck Bellman - saxophone & flute
Tom Walker - piano
Randy Wright - bass
Gerry Reynolds - drums

Some years ago I played drums with the Chandler-Gilbert College night jazz band,
a seventeen-piece ensemble that still plays regularly in the Valley. A number of 
members, including those in the Reunion Jazz Band, have continued with the
band, as well as branching out to perform with other groups. Recently six of us
came together (a reunion for me) to perform for a band member's wedding
(see the attached photo). The reunion was magical, as was the wedding,
so I just had to bring the guys together again in Payson.

$5 donation at the door includes refreshments.

Please let me know if you plan to attend with a return reply to this e-mail,
or with an individual message sent to: gerry-reynolds@hotmail.com.
