Gem City Jazz Band to Present Spring Concert

The Gem City Jazz Band — formerly known as the East Erie Turners Concert Band — will present its spring concert on Tuesday at 7 p.m. at St. John Parish Center, adjacent to St. John Lutheran's Church, 2216 Peach St.

Directed by Tim McKinney, Gem City will perform standards, such as "Moon Indigo," "Theme from New York, New York," "Battle Hymn of the Republic," and assorted jazz selections. Duane Kraus will be the featured vocalist on two songs.

Admission is free, but donations will be accepted. The show was originally scheduled for March 16, but postponed due to a snowstorm. Pray there's no repeat!
