Island Jazz presents a special concert event presenting music made famous by TV shows over the decades, performed by the Charlottetown Jazz Ensemble and the Island Jazz Quartet with vocalist Kelley Mooney and other special guests – Friday November 21st 7:30pm at the Florence Simmons Performance Hall.Music from TV shows has carved out a unique and beloved space in our memories. The deep connection we feel to soundtracks and theme songs from our favorite series stems from a potent blend of nostalgia and heightened storytelling. Iconic songs from shows watched over the years evoke powerful memories of shared viewing experiences, and for many the music is inseparable from our personal history and identity.
For this show audiences will enjoy jazz arrangements of classic TV music from favourite shows including Sesame Street, Spiderman, The Simpsons, Mission Impossible, and M*A*S*H, Sanford & Son, both the Gilmore and Golden Girls and Get Smart too, plus WKRP, The Odd Couple, Mary Tyler Moore, Three’s Company, Cheers Cowboy Bebop and more.
Formed in 1996 the Charlottetown Jazz Ensemble is celebrating it’s 30th anniversary this season. The band features Island musicians with a wide range of backgrounds, from gifted students to seasoned professionals. For 30 years now the band has been presenting an eclectic mix of traditional standards and contemporary jazz.
Since 2013 Island Jazz has showcased the value of live improvisation and spontaneity in music of any genre. For ten seasons now Island Jazz has been presenting weekly shows every Thursday night at Baba's Lounge, featuring top musicians from a variety of backgrounds performing original music, jazz standards, pop hits and favourites from a wide variety of genres and styles. And since 2022 Island Jazz has partnered with Roving Picture Shows to present live improvised soundtracks for silent movies.
The concert on Friday November 21 is an all-ages event with bar service available. Music starts at 7:30. Tickets are $40 at the door but only $30 in advance and $15 for students.
