Drop-in Lunchtime Concert
Second Wednesday of each month from noon-1 pm
BYO Lunch (and musical appetite) and join Dr. Tom for a concert in the Stillion Conference Room. April 10th’s theme is: The Songs of Johnny Mercer. Mercer wrote more lyrics in the
Great American Songbook than anyone else, collaborating with more than 100 composers. Songs include saloon torch song “One for My Baby (and One More for the Road), movie songs “Moon River” and “Days of Wine and Roses”. Romantic ballads like “Come Rain or Come Shine”
and “I Thought About You”. Rhythm tunes like “That Old Black Magic”. Translations (yes) like “Glow Worm” and “The Summer Wind.” Way too many to count!
