It’s a “Hometown
Christmas”
“The best of all your remembered Christmases,”
is how the Mr. Jack Daniel’s Original Silver Cornet Band’s
“Hometown Christmas” musical show has been described.
“Hometown Christmas” will be performed
at 7 p.m., Tuesday, Dec. 10 at U of O as part of the ongoing 2002-03
Walton Arts & Ideas Series.
Mr. Jack Daniel’s Original Silver Cornet Band
is a re-creation of an actual small town band (Lynchburg, Tenn., Pop.
361) at the turn of the century. Touring the U.S. since 1978, the band
brings vividly to life the sights and sounds of a vanished era in American
musical history via a 12-piece band of Tennessee musicians dedicated
to playing the music of the small town bands of over half a century
ago.“Hometown Christmas” will feature numerous holiday
favorites, including “O Holy Night,” “The Little Drummer
Boy,” “Go Tell it on the Mountain,” and “Santa Claus
is Coming to Town,” all spun around a captivating narrative.
