A Country Winter Bash with the Make Mine Country Band

FRIDAY, JAN. 21, 7 P.M.

The Keystone Brass Quintet was founded in 1976. More than 350 performances and 45 years later, two of the five founding members remain with the ensemble. The cohesive nature of the ensemble and the richness of their sound is due in a large part to the high level of musicianship of the unchanging personnel. Renaissance and Baroque music from the 15th and 16th centuries, romantic melodies, Broadway show tunes, big band music, marches, opera and contemporary literature all find their way into programs presented by this talented group of musicians.

SUNDAY, JAN. 16, 2 – 5 P.M. Brossman Ballroom

A Masonic Village favorite for several years, Shelby Nestler and the Make Mine Country Band performs a variety of music as diverse as the members of the band themselves. Although their roots are in classic country, they are just as comfortable playing a classic rock tune or a rousing polka. Join us to get out together and kick up our heels for a great time. Light refreshments and adult beverages will be available. Reservations are required.

Please call Liz Grosh at ext. 39930 to RSVP by Friday, Jan. 7. For transportation, please note the pick-up location and your phone number. Please call for yourselves and not an entire group, as designated seating arrangements are not available.
