Dreaming and Dancing in Clubhouse 4
The Velvetones Ballroom Dance Orchestra, Leisure World’s own professional big band, was privileged to perform patriotic numbers and popular swing tunes for the Veterans Day morning gathering in Clubhouse 2 on Nov. 11. The band will perform big band swing and jazz standards, music for dreaming and dancing, in its regular venue at Clubhouse 4 on Sunday, Nov. 21, at 6 p.m.
Whether it be a well-known big band standard, contemporary jazz showcase, sentimental vocal ballad or a hard-swinging brass feature, the Velvetones provides a complete package of musical entertainment.
The Velvetones plays the first and third Sundays of every month. Concerts are free, but tips are appreciated.
Doors open at 5:30 p.m., and table saving is not allowed.
