The last free concert of the summer starts at 6 p.m. Sunday, August 16, at Circle (Klein) Park, 97th Street and Homan Avenue, Evergreen Park.

South Side native Rich Daniels brings his renowned, 32-piece City Lights Orchestra playing classic standards from George Gershwin and Woody Herman, Glen Miller and Benny Goodman, as well as tunes from Hollywood film scores and Broadway shows.

In addition to corporate gigs and charity galas, CLO has also backed up singers Ray Charles, Mel Torme, Michael Bolton and Dionne Warwick and comedians Jay Leno and Rich Little.

This is the final concert of the summer and it’s always a big one.

Bring your blankets, lawn chairs and maybe some plastic to sit on and enjoy a relaxing Sunday evening of music in the park. Don’t forget the mosquito repellent.
