FREE GOLDEN AFTERNOONS CONCERT BY 3D BAND IS NEXT TUESDAY, MARCH 11
The 3Ds will play a variety of folk, jazz, Celtic, old-time and Americana songs during their concert for the Golden Afternoons program at 1 p.m. next Tuesday, March 11 in the lobby at the Deane Center for the Performing Arts at 104 Main Street in Wellsboro.
The concert is free. Anyone who is 55 years of age or older is welcome to attend. Free cookies and coffee or tea will be provided.
The 3Ds include David Milano on guitar; David Driskell on clarinet, flute, whistle and musical saw; Daria Lin-Guelig on hammered dulcimer and concertina; and Anne Acker on upright bass.
Their genre-blending experiment has given each member of the group an opportunity to stretch their musical legs, and resulted in a unique ensemble with an uncommonly engaging and diverse musical repertoire.
Among the 18 tunes they plan to play on March 11 are: “When The Saints Go Marching In;” “I Will” by The Beatles; “On The Sunny Side of The Street,” a 1930 song; “Putting on The Ritz” written by Irving Berlin and first published on Dec. 2, 1929; “Careless Love,” a traditional song; “Summertime” from George Gershwin’s “Porgy & Bess”; “The Irish Rover,” an Irish folk song about a sailing ship; “Sweet Georgia Brown,” a jazz standard composed in 1925; “Can’t Help Falling in Love” recorded by singer and actor Elvis Presley in 1961; “Tam Lin,” a character in a legendary ballad originating from the Scottish Borders; The “Pennsylvania Polka” popularized by the Andrews Sisters in 1942; and “When You’re Smiling,” published in 1928.
