Brunswick High School Music Boosters present A Night of Swing and Jazz on Saturday, October 24, featuring the Opus One Big Band.  The evening will begin with a silent auction and complimentary dessert buffet in the Brunswick High School cafeteria at 5:30 pm, followed by the concert in Crooker Theater at 7 pm. 

The evening will also include a performance by the Brunswick High School Jazz Ensemble under the direction of Michael Scarpone.  Admission is $10 for adults and $5 for students.  

Adults may also purchase chances to win one of three raffle items at a drawing to be held at the concert: 8 hours of building /maintenance/project assistance donated by Christian Boll, Builder and Contractor; 2 season tickets to Maine State Music Theater, and a FitBit HR. All proceeds benefit the Brunswick High School Music program, and will be used for equipment and travel expenses for the students.

 The Opus One Big Band comprises Maine musicians who support music programs by performing benefit concerts throughout the state.  The band has been playing for over twenty years and has performed for church concert series, music booster fundraisers, and other charitable events.  The band is currently under the direction of Dale Perkins and includes music educators and performers from across the state.  The Brunswick concert will feature big band and jazz music.

 The silent auction features 50 donated items such as four rounds of golf at Brunswick Golf Club, a family membership at the Farnsworth Art Museum, tickets to a Maine State Music Theater performance, two roundtrip vouchers for the Amtrak Downeaster, as well as many gift certificates to local restaurants and businesses.
