  • (1888PressRelease) August 25, 2011 - DuBois, PA - In keeping with their long-standing tradition since 1911, the DuBois Concert Association announced today their Three-Concert Series season for 2011-2012.

    This entertainment season will include the much-lauded "Swing Machine" conducted and directed by Robert Feldbush whose musical career spans over 50 years ranging from the United States Navy School of Music to receiving the Distinguished Alumnus Award in music education in 2000, from Kent State in Ohio. Mr. Feldbush will fill the Big-Band stage with 20 other musicians playing trumpet, trombone, guitar, percussion and guitar. The Swing Machine concert will be held on September 18th at 3PM at the DuBois Middle School.

    On October 24th, the "Southern Fried Jazz Band" will be led by veteran trumpeter Don Edwards. Edwards' musical history has been distinguished by backing some of the world's Dixieland greats like Louis Armstrong and the World's Greatest Jazz Band. The "Southern Fried Jazz" horn section has established itself as having a crowd-pleasing variety of musical selections and well honed stage spontaneity amongst its veteran players.

    In early 2012, the DuBois Concert Association will fill the hall with anxious fans of Steve Lippia. Heralded around the world as one of the finest vocal interpreters of jazz and pop "standards" of this generation, Steve Lippia will sing his way through the American songbook to the delight of all that get their tickets early. The concert will be held on April 22.

    "Our 2012 concert series is full of everyone's favorite kind of music and entertainment. We're very pleased they all came together this season!" notes Bob Moline, Vice President of the DCA.
