Free concert Saturday by The Great Big Band

The Great Big Band presents a free concert at The Poncan at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, as a tribute to the late band director Bill Rotter.

The Great Big Band was organized in August 2004, and comprises 22 musicians from Perry and surrounding communities.  Most of the music they perform is from the ’30s, ’40s, and early ’50s, the Big Band era, although more contemporary arrangements are also included in this concert.

Four members of the band are Po-Hi alumni. The band is in the middle of its 12th season and continues to provide the Big Band sound fans crave. Relax and re-live those wonderful memories you made while listening to these songs for the very first time.
