The Last Waltz Celebration returns to the Tarrytown Music Hall for the 5th consecutive year, this time to celebrate the 50th anniversary of The Last Waltz!On Thanksgiving Day 1976, The Last Waltz was held at the Winterland Ballroom in San Francisco. The Band’s farewell concert featured a who’s who of rock royalty from Bob Dylan, Neil Young and Eric Clapton to Van Morrison, Joni Mitchell and Ronnie Hawkins. This epic musical event was later immortalized in Martin Scorsese’s landmark film, “The Last Waltz,” widely considered one of the greatest concert films ever made.
Gary Solomon, co-founder of The THE BAND Band, was in the audience that night. “I knew that what I was seeing was not just another rock concert. It was a once in a lifetime event.”
The Last Waltz Celebration revisits the music and the magic of that Thanksgiving evening 50 years ago, beginning with The THE BAND Band performing a set of The Band's most beloved songs, followed by a revolving cast of musicians performing the songs of those guest stars featured in the original concert, and also including fiddler Larry Packer, who played with The Band at The Last Waltz in 1976!
