Fourth Annual A-Town Jazz Festival
The town of Arlington will once again pulse with the sounds of jazz when the Fourth Annual A-Town Jazz Festival kicks in on April 11th and 12th. The Festival, hosted by Dan Fox and Morningside Music Studio, features renowned jazz trumpeter-composer Greg Hopkins, best known for his writing and performing with the Buddy Rich Band and his 40 years as a professor at Berklee College of Music. Also headlining the Festival bill will be vocalist Lydia Harrell accompanied by her LovelySinger Band.
Greg Hopkins will be featured as part of Manduca Sexta, a jazz sextet led by bassist and composer Manuel Kaufmann, which explores both powerful and more impressionistic sound and feels. www.greghopkins.net, www.facebook.com/manuel.kaufmann.9

Be it performing with the Boston Pops or serenading Boston Celtics fans with the National Anthem, Harrell's dedication to extracting the pure essence of song is virtually unmatched. www.lovelysinger.com
