About this Event
Whether you’re familiar with classic hits or you’ve memorized the lyrics to every deep track, you won’t want to miss Warren Oree and The Arpeggio Jazz Ensemble’s performance at Penn State Great Valley! Oree will guide the audience on a trip down musical memory lane. He and his fellow musicians aim to illustrate how signature Motown sounds emanated from the soul and style of jazz.
Presented by the Philadelphia-based Lifeline Music Coalition, the event will focus on the union of these two musical genres by highlighting signature Motown favorites infused with the jazz style of soul and improvisation. The program will feature a variety of instrumentalists and singers in addition to The Arpeggio Jazz Ensemble.
“This is not a ‘cover’ band trying to play the music exactly the same as the recordings,” explains Oree. “Our goal is to show the harmony that existed — and still exists — between two styles of music that were considered distinctly different. Together these two styles create a sound that propels and moves the listener to a place where memories stimulate and refresh.”
This is one of the many successful Lifeline Music events that have attracted fans since 2003 by providing a unique, enjoyable atmosphere at their workshops, festivals, and concerts.
