Jazz Bassist Rob Duguay to Give Oct. 8 Concert at Westminster School

Jazz bassist Rob Duguay and his Songevity Trio will give a performance at Westminster School Oct. 8 in a Wednesday night edition of the school’s “Friday Nights in Gund,” a series of readings, lectures and concerts held at Westminster during the academic year.

Duguay, a Simsbury native who is based in New York, performs in the region and internationally. He has earned recognition for his bass performance and composition. In addition to Duguay, the Songevity Trio includes Alex Terrier on the saxophones and Nadav Snir-Zelniker on the drums. They will be playing heartland and swinging jazz.

The trio’s Westminster School performance is free and open to the public and will begin at 7 p.m. in the Gund Reading Room of the school’s Armour Academic Center. The school is located at 995 Hopmeadow St. in Simsbury. Refreshments will be served after the concert and ample parking will be available in the parking lot adjacent to the Armour Academic Center.

The Friday Nights in Gund series is made possible by generous grants from The Ensign Bickford Foundation and the Ford-Goldfarb English Department Enrichment Fund.
