Coventry High School Music Boosters will be hosting Red Satin Band Friday, March 23rd 2012 at 7PM in the Veterans Auditorium located at Coventry HS 78 Ripley Hill Road, Coventry, CT 06238
The CHS Music Boosters are proud to present the Red Satin Band in a benefit concert to support the music programs of Coventry High School. Members of this twelve piece band have a long history of performance with top names in the industry including names like The Temptations, Chubby Checker, The Drifters, & k.d.lang. In addition they are known for performing at many local and national venues as well as many benefits like Madison Square Garden, Hartford Riverfest, CT Children’s Hospital Gala, & WFSB’s “Better Connecticut”. CHS Jazz Band had the pleasure of hosting Red Satin Band last spring at their first ever Coventry Jazz Festival. Including local high school jazz bands from Bolton, NFA, & Cheney Tech, the Jazz festival brought high school jazz musicians together with the talented members of Red Satin Band for an afternoon of music workshops and rehearsals culminating in an evening of performances by all bands, as well as fantastic finale by Red Satin Band.
This year the CHS Music Boosters and CHS Jazz Band look forward to welcoming the Red Satin Band members back to our home stage for a full evening of swing, standards, and contemporary pieces that span the decades.
Red Satin Band is proud to support this fundraising effort for the CHS music programs with the additional honor of promoting the National Music in Our Schools Month (see http://www.menc.org/events/view/music-in-our-schools-month for more info)
