Jazz legend Bob Dorough to perform

WESTFALL — The Delaware Valley Music Department will present the annual Spring Jazz Concert on the evening of Thursday, May 21. The concert will begin at 7 p.m., in the high school auditorium. In addition to displaying the talents of the DVHS band students, this year’s concert will feature jazz legend Bob Dorough as the special guest artist. Dorough has been performing continually since the 1940’s. His first record album, “Devil May Care,” released 1956, caused quite a stir. The buzz has continued over nearly five decades since then, with Dorough recordings issued on a variety of labels, both large and tiny. Along the way, he became the first - and the last - halfway decent singer to appear on a Miles Davis record. Dorough is probably most known for his innovative work on “Schoolhouse Rock.” These videos entertained children of all ages on ABC-TV during the 70s, 80s and 90s. Bob handled the music for about fifty of these timeless little classics. The band will perform a number of Mr. Dorough’s compositions including: “Conjunction Junction,” and “Three is a Magic Number.” Admission is free. Please come out and enjoy a spectacular night of jazz music. For more information, contact Lance Rauh @ 570-296-1800 x7161.
