CYNTHIA SAYER TO PERFORM
The Department of Parks and Recreation announces that internationally renowned jazz banjoist and vocalist, Cynthia Sayer, will perform with her band at Roger Sherman Baldwin Park Wednesday August 3, 7:15 pm to 8:45 pm. Our rain date is Thursday, August 4.
Cynthia Sayer’s musical approach has a contemporary hip appeal, yet her music is based on 1920s and 1930s jazz. Cynthia brings her audience on a delightful journey through musical Americana. Opening in the ragtime era, she swings through the wild new “jass” sound, experience vaudeville banjo stars, romp through Tin Pan Alley, vamp the classics, enjoy old favorites and wind up in a virtuoso flurry of banjo hits.
Cynthia’s credits include playing and recording with Woody Allen, Dick Hyman, Milt Hilton and many others. She has been featured in festivals throughout Europe, the Far East and the USA. She has played at the White House for President Reagan, at Carnegie Hall, and with the NYC Philharmonic.
Now is your chance to listen to Cynthia Sayer right in your own backyard! Bring a picnic dinner, a blanket and come join us for some wonderful music under the stars.
Roger Sherman Baldwin Park is located on Arch Street by the Teen Center and Island Beach Ferry Dock.
