SUMMARY:2/7: Point & Swing Big Band
DESCRIPTION:A multi-piece big band with a great swing\, jazz and blues sound… Point n’ Swing has been entertaining audiences in central Massachusetts since 1998\, through a mix of public concerts\, charity benefits\, and upscale private events. Following a traditional “big band” format\, the band’s repertoire spans the classic early swing sounds of the 1930s and 1940s\, to the intricacy of today’s modern jazz. In an evening with Point n’ Swing\, you’ll groove to cool arrangements from Count Basie\, Duke Ellington and Thad Jones\, and feel energized by the sounds of Buddy Rich\, Weather Report and Gordon Goodwin. Join us for a trip through 80 years of jazz! \nFun fact: the band was originally chartered through a local tech company\, and the band’s name was morphed from the “point and click” operation that we all performed many times a day\, before touchscreens became pervasive. A few of those original members remain with the band today. The band still includes many with full-time jobs in the tech industry: lawyers\, engineers\, business leaders\, and professors\, among others\, in addition to some making a living teaching and playing music. \nTake a listen to a pre-Covid performance – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fg0yB6TrTK8 \nDoors open at 7pm. BYOB & snacks. Cabaret seating.
