Brass meets Swing
After a sellout concert last year Rangiora Brass and Sideline Swing have teamed up again to present "Brass meets Swing". The bands will again entertain with a mix of traditional, jazz and swing. Music from the Ritz of the 20s, the big band era right through to the present. The Musical Directors of Rangiora Brass and Sideline Swing, Dwayne Bloomfield and Butch Greene have a wealth of musical knowledge, both having served in the New Zealand Army Band. They promise to have you entertained throughout the afternoon. This will be a concert for all age groups. The bands want to showcase what is available in North Canterbury and boost interest in joining up to either play or learn and instrument.
The concert will be on Saturday 18th April at 2pm in the Rangiora Town Hall Auditorium. Tickets are only $12 and available at the Rangiora Town Hall or online at www.townhallcinemas.co.nz... Enquiries to Steve on 027 6563737
