The Legendary Count Basie Orchestra live at the Pearl Street Arts Center

THE LEGENDARY COUNT BASIE ORCHESTRA
Directed by SCOTTY BARNHART
FREE CONCERT

On Saturday, October 26 at 7:00 p.m., the Pearl Street Arts Center welcomes the legendary Count Basie Orchestra in a free concert celebrating the conclusion of its grand opening week.

In the history of Jazz music, there is only one bandleader that has the distinction of having his orchestra still performing sold out concerts all over the world, with members personally chosen by him, for over 30 years after his passing. Pianist and bandleader William James “Count” Basie was and still is an American institution that personifies the grandeur and excellence of Jazz. The Count Basie Orchestra, today directed by Scotty Barnhart, has won every respected jazz poll in the world at least once, won 18 Grammy Awards, performed for Kings, Queens, and other world Royalty, appeared in several movies, television shows, at every major jazz festival and major concert hall in the world.

Be among the first to hear worldclass music in Fort Wayne’s newest premier concert facility.
