MCB ST. PADDY’S DAY SALUTE, MAR. 14, RENE CAISSE THEATRE
BRACEBRIDGE — Irish eyes will be smiling and you’ll hear an angel sing when the Muskoka Concert Band pays tribute to Ireland Saturday afternoon at the Rene Caisse Theatre.
The Saint Paddy’s Day Salute will be as lovely as a morn’ in spring.
And you’ll be Dublin over with laughter at the limericks of Paul Feist as “Dorkin Barnes.”
He will be joined by singer Tracy (Hohner) Kilgour, who will perform a number of tunes with the MCB, under the direction of Fran Harvey.
The concert starts at 2 p.m. and tickets are $30 for all seats.
The concert is a presented by the new Friends of the Caisse.
They’re billing it as a “fun afternoon of toe-tapping music and a touch of the blarney.”
The program selection includes:
- The Bells of Ouseley
- Appalachian Morning
- Finian’s Rainbow
- Irish Rhapsody
- Five Foot Two
- Keltic Dances
- Danny Boy
- Two Irish Songs
- Ireland Must be Heaven
- Ashokan Farewell
- And a couple of technically unrelated, but nonetheless fun songs, Five Foot Two and Mustang Sally.
March 14 will be your lucky day if you love Irish music, songs and humour. The Friends of Caisse present the Muskoka Concert Band, with guest singer Tracy (Hohner) Kilgour and humorist Paul Fiest.
