Trom-bone up on some new music

The next INHOUSE Jazz concert will present the unique duo of guitarist Christopher Woitach and trombonist John Moak at a private home in Waldport this Sunday, June 23.

Woitach plays a wide range of jazz styles from Dixieland to free jazz, ragtime to bebop. His compositions reflect his diverse musical tastes and abilities, combining the intricacies of baroque counterpoint with the freedom of modern jazz.

Moak is an integral part of the Northwest music scene, with more than three decades of professional experience performing with symphony orchestras, ballets, Broadway musicals, big bands, Dixieland bands and various jazz groups. He has performed with such notable jazz artists as Dave Brubeck, Branford Marsalis, Doc Severinsen and Rosemary Clooney.

The INHOUSE Jazz atmosphere is informal, providing an opportunity for audiences to enjoy an intimate concert free from the noise and distractions often associated with a restaurant or bar. There is no charge for these sessions, but a donation of $15 to $30 is suggested to compensate musicians. Funds collected beyond expenses are donated to support local arts and education. Attendees are welcome to bring beverages and potluck treats.

The concert is from 2:30 to 5:30 pm. To attend and receive the address, call Annie Averre at 360-606-7136.
