Festive "New Orleans" Music

Dr Jass & the Heartbeats

Sunday April 1st, 2 pm
Community Presbyterian Church
800 W Main Street, Payson

"Dr Jass" brings a wide variety of musical influences into its basic groove of funky, contemporary New Orleans street music, including rhythm and blues, swing, and Dixie. Besides the 6-piece instrumentation, four members sing as well. The group's leader, Dr. Claudio Zamorano, has extensive playing experience as a trumpeter leading a New Orleans-style jazz group for many years at the Hot Jazz Club of Santiago, Chile. Obviously, American jazz has had a major impact upon the choice of music being performed around the world.

"Dr Jass" features Dale Knighton on banjo and vocals, Suzanne Knighton * on guitar, washboard, various other noisy devices and vocals, Mike Buskirk on trombone and vocals, Robert Tarallo on clarinet, Larry Brasen on upright bass and vocals, Gerry Reynolds on the the drums,and, of course, Dr. Claudio Zamorano on trumpet, piano and vocals.

This will be quite a show !!
