The Community Concert Association of Bordentown’s 38th season kicked off in October, and it continues with an early November performance. The Dixielanders Traveling Show Band will appear at Bordentown Regional Middle School, 50 Dunn’s Mill Rd., Nov. 4 at 3 p.m. Trombone, banjo, tuba and vocals comprise the group, which draws its repertoire from traditional jazz and Dixieland favorites, plus sing-a-longs, Tin Pan Allet, early favorites, and authentic New Orleans jazz.

The season continues on March 10, 2019 with Words and Music, a vocal chamber ensemble. The group’s mission is to examine the unity of two languages: words and music. Words and Music will perform a program full of American classics, like its popular renditions of standards popularized by Ella Fitzgerald.

The concert season will close April 7, 2019 with a performance by the Wind Symphony of Southern Jersey. The group has been under the direction of Dr. Robert Streckfuss since 1977 and has twice toured Europe. The April 7 concert will include music by Bernstein, Gershwin and Lauridsen, plus a salute to American Jazz, music from the Sacred Harp, and more.

Tickets for all shows are $20 for adults and $5 for students. For more information, visit bordentownconcerts.net.
