Pound at the YMCA of Greater Westfield The YMCA of Greater Westfield is offering the fastest growing group fitness phenomenon inspired by the sweat-dripping, infectious, energizing fun of drumming!

POUND is a full body cardio jam session championed by fitness rebels around the world. Pound is the brainchild of Kirsten Potenza and Cristina Peerenboom, California-based former drummers who set out to fuse conditioning moves and cardio interval training with the distracting fun of drumming. Instead of listening to music, you become the music in this exhilarating fullbody workout that combines cardio, conditioning, and strength training with yoga and pilates-inspired movements. Using Ripstix®, lightly weighted drumsticks engineered specifically for exercising, POUND transforms drumming into an

incredibly effective way of working out. Designed for all fitness levels, POUND provides the perfect atmosphere for letting loose, getting energized, toning up and rockin’ out! The workout is easily modifiable and the alternative vibe and welcoming philosophy appeals to all abilities. Sweat, Sculpt, & ROCK with POUND at the YMCA on Thursdays 6:30PM and Saturdays at 9:15AM. For more info, contact Cindy Agan, Fitness Director, 413568-8631 or email: cagan@ westfieldymca.org.

Westfield Homeless Cat Project seeking donations As the temperatures drop, WHCP has a dramatic increase in requests for assisting homeless and abandoned cats. Winters are especially harsh for stray cats and while our lucky feline family members have warm places to sleep and humans to snuggle, there are many out there fending for themselves.

Every day is a struggle as they try to survive the brutal cold and inclement weather.

During these frigid winter months, WHCP strives to assist each and every cat at risk which creates an urgent need for canned cat food, monetary donations and supplies. At this time we especially need canned Friskies and Fancy Feast. WHCP is also seeking donations of gently used items for upcoming tag sales. Donations can be dropped off at 1124 East Mountain Road, Westfield, MA. For more information please contact Denise at denisesinico@hotmail.com or (413) 568-6964. Thank you for your support!

The Big Broadcast!

Returns To Mount Holyoke College’s Chapin Auditorium The Jazz Ensembles of Mount Holyoke College present the 14th edition of The Big Broadcast! on Saturday, March 2 at 2PM & 7:30PM at Chapin Auditorium, Mount Holyoke College, in South Hadley, MA. Snow date is Sunday, March 3.. Created and directed by Mark Gionfriddo, who is also onstage as “Matt Morgan”, The Big Broadcast! is a recreation of a live 1940’s radio show featuring the Mount Holyoke College Big Band, Vocal Jazz, and Chamber Jazz Ensembles performing wellknown tunes from the swing era and the American songbook. WWLP-TV meteorologist Brian Lapis is emcee “Fred Kelley” for his 12th consecutive season. This season marks the 20th anniversary of the Jazz Ensembles of Mount holyoke College and Mount Holyoke alum, fiddler Zoë Darrow will join The Big Broadcast! as special guest.

Mount Holyoke College music faculty member Mark Gionfriddo originally created The Big Broadcast! for a small cabaret group he directed, and incorporated it into the concert season at Mount Holyoke College. It has since been designated as a Signature Event at the college.

Mark Gionfriddo (“Matt Morgan”) is well known to area concertgoers as a pianist, accompanist, composer, arranger, and musical director. His versatility and knowledge of many musical styles has brought him together with a wide range of popular and classical artists through the years, among them Mitzi Gaynor, Liberace, Al Martino, Anna Moffo, the Young@ Heart Chorus, and Garrison Keillor. Mark’s adventures while assistant conductor on board Cunard’s MS Royal Viking Sun brought him around the world to 30 countries. Mark received his Bachelor’s Degree in Piano from Skidmore College and Master’s Degree in Accompanying from UMASS/Amherst.

Mark has been based at

SAVE WITH THE PENNYSAVER

Mount Holyoke College since 1986 where he is a Senior Instructor in Classical and Jazz Piano as well as Director and Founder of the Jazz Ensembles. In 2006, he conducted the MHC Big Band during two episodes of the popular public radio quiz show Says You!. Mark is also a music director for Berkshire Theatre Group in Stockbridge and Pittsfield MA during the summer, and has recently served in that capacity for productions of The Music Man, Peter Pan, A Class Act, Seussical the Musical, Mary Poppins, Beauty and The Beast, A Christmas Carol, Tarzan, and the Neil Ellenoff Musical Mondays series.

Gionfriddo is co-author: Good Night, Dear Hart, Good Night, the story of HartLester H. Allen, whose husband brought down the infamous Charles Ponzi of “Ponzi scheme” fame. The book, on the Epigraph imprint, is coauthored by his mother, Jeannie Gionfriddo.

Brian Lapis (“Fred Kelley”) joined the 22News Storm Team in 1996. He got his start in broadcasting at the age of 15 at radio station WILI, in his hometown of Willimantic, CT. He’s worked as a radio on-air talent for stations in Hartford, CT; Philadelphia, PA; Syracuse, NY; and Providence, RI. Brian has a Bachelor’s degree in Television Radio Film Management from Syracuse University. In addition, he holds a certificate in Broadcast Meteorology from Mississippi State University.

This is his 12th season as WJAZ announcer and emcee “Fred Kelley”. In 2013, the National Weather Association named Brian “Broadcaster of the Year”.

Brian loves performing as “Fred Kelley”. “The combination of the opportunity for me to perform, the creative energy of the students and Mark Gionfriddo, and the great music makes this far and away my favorite event of the year,” he said. “As a ‘student of broadcasting’, I am one who appreciates the Golden Age of Radio and just how hugely popular these variety shows were in their day. I’d like to believe that if I were around back in the

1940s, I would have a gig like Fred Kelley’s.”

Zoë Darrow is an accomplished fiddler and musician of rare intensity and expressive range who grew up playing Cape Breton and other Celtic music on a sheep farm in Blandford, Massachusetts.

She released her first recording in 2001 at the age of 12, with her band the Fiddleheads.

The Valley Advocate named them “Best Celtic Band” in 2007 and Celtic Heritage Magazine acclaimed Zoë as an artist “destined to add savory spice to the global mix.” A graduate of Mount Holyoke College with a degree in anthropology and music, she has also become a

Sunday. March 3, 2019 - 11

much sought after collaborator, touring and recording with luminaries like banjo innovator Tony Trischka, Bela Fleck’s primary banjo guru and an instructor at the Berklee College of Music.

With Tim Eriksen and percussionist Peter Irvine she has toured North America and as far abroad as Singapore.
