PAUL ENGLISH AND FRIENDS — JAZZ & MORE! SATURDAY, JULY 13, 7:00 P.M.

Houston-based pianist and composer Paul English has been full of delightful musical surprises each time he has per formed on Chebeague. He returns in July to open our sea son with more cool jazz featuring one of his long-time col laborators, Horace Alexander Young, whose career has fea tured gigs and recordings with such disparate artists as B.B. King, McCoy Tyner, Nancy Wilson, the O’Jays, the Four Tops and Betty Carter. Also on the bill, a string section! What is Paul up to this year? PAUL ENGLISH — SATCHMO ON SUNDAY SUNDAY, JULY 14, 10:00 A.M. “My whole life, my whole soul, my whole spirit is to blow that horn."--Louis Armstrong You may know jazz pioneer Louis Armstrong through his groundbreaking "West End Blues" or his pop hits "Hello, Dolly" and "What a Wonderful World." But, as we will joy fully discover, there was also deep spirituality to his music. Another Chebeague first--Satchmo on Sunday. The musicians of the Sebago Long Lake Music Festival have become part of the Chebeague extended family. They relish their time on Chebeague and, for over 20 years, Che beaguers in turn have embraced them and their inspiring chamber music. This summer, their program will feature works by Lucas Foss, Anton Arensky and Robert Schumann. Please note the special time of this concert. HALCYON STRING QUARTET ROBERT MCCLOSKEY’S “MAKE WAY FOR DUCKLINGS” SUNDAY, AUGUST 4, 4:00 P.M. Our “children of all ages” program has become one of our most popular offerings. This year’s program, created by the young members of the Halcyon String Quartet, will feature Make Way for Ducklings , Robert McCloskey’s enchanting story of two mallards who raise their brood on an island in SEBAGO LONG LAKE MUSIC FESTIVAL THURSDAY, JULY 25 6:30 PM

CONCERT PIANIST HENRY KRAMER SUNDAY, AUGUST 18, 7:00 P.M.

The MacBeth Concert Series is honored to introduce classi cal pianist Henry Kramer to Chebeague Island.

THE SEASIDE BRASS QUINTET SATURDAY, AUGUST 31, 2:00 P.M. JIM AND ANNE GALLAGH ER’S COTTAGE

What could be more pleasant? A sun swept lawn overlook ing Chandler’s Cove. Fun, eclectic music. Relaxed patrons singing along. Passersby wandering in to check out the scene. The Seaside Brass Quintet has built an increasingly loyal following since joining the summer series so many years ago. Make your plans now to join us when they re turn to Chebeague in late August.

TYLER PUTNAM AND SARAH NORDIN “CARMEN” SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 7:00 P.M.

One of last season’s most memorable moments was the eruption of applause and the cries of “Bravo” and ”Brava” at the conclusion of La Boheme. Opera had come to Che beague — triumphantly! Tyler, Sarah and their friends will thrill us again this summer with an abridged version of Georges Bizet’s Carmen, the world’s most popular opera. Come see what first-class opera is like on an island in the middle of Casco Bay. All performances will be held at the Chebeague Community Church, except as otherwise noted.
