Beantown Swing Orchestra at Chevalier Sunday
- Ken Krause, President, Chevalier Theatre Organ Society
Mark your 2008 calendars for Sunday, February 10 at 2 p.m. and make plans to attend the Medford Family Concert at Chevalier Theatre!
Presented by the Chevalier Theatre Organ Society, the concert will feature the Beantown Swing Orchestra, an 18-piece big band composed of young jazz musicians known for their lively and energetic playing of classic Swing Era music. The orchestra is featured as the wedding band in climactic scene of the upcoming movie “Bachelor No. 2″ starring Kate Hudson, Dane Cook and Jason Biggs.
You can hear the orchestra swing at www.beantownswing.com.
Admission to the concert will be FREE for everyone age 18 and under; admission for others will be a $10 donation to the Chevalier Theatre Organ Society, a nonprofit organization that is working to restore and install a 1922 Mighty Wurlitzer Theatre Pipe Organ at Chevalier.
The event is being produced in collaboration with the Medford Family Network, the Medford Public Schools, Springstep, and the Tufts Music Mentor Program.

I have always been a supporter of the Theatre Organ Society. Are they doing this event again in 2009. The poor website of the Organ Society still has this old event highlighted on their website. Regardless I will still attend of the public shows of the Beantown Swing Orchestra next year. I love them!!
