Eli Newberger's Jazz Tuber Trio: 7/27 Concert in Lenox, MA

[enewberger]

Dear friends,

In this outdoor concert, my trio will be offering jazz treatments of songs from from "Coney Island Washboard Roundelay" to "Tiger Rag." On the poster, please note the evocative tuba drawing during last year's appearance by our friend, Sol Schwartz.

A splendid exhibition of Sol's work, called "Drawing in the Dark," is now running at the Norman Rockwell Museum. Musicians are his principal subjects.
