ALEX HARVEY TO SING FOR BIRTHDAY POTLUCK Born and raised in the Delta, just outside of Memphis, songwriter Alex Harvey’s music is influenced by a variety of genres. You might call him Delta Blues or Southern Rock, depending on the song he is singing, but his consistent thread is definitely Soul. For this month’s Birthday Potluck, Alex will perform some of his older tunes, like Delta Dawn and Rueben James, as well as a few of his more recent Christian songs. Plus, joining Alex with harmony vocals will be his manager/ fiancée — who is also our very own fitness instructor — Gineille Sabilino! Alex Harvey is a bit of a legend in songwriting circles and we are very fortunate to have him. Make plans to be here this November 20th. Lunch is at 11:30. Music at noon. Please bring a side dish.
STRAVINSKY’S FIREBIRD AT NASHVILLE SYMPHONY NOV. 7 Igor Fyodorovich Stravinsky (1882-1971) was a Russian, and later French and American composer, pianist and conductor. He is widely considered to be one of the most important composers of the 20th century, and his adaptation of the Russian folktale Firebird is bursting with some of the most astounding music ever written for orchestra. We are going to hear Stravinsky’s Firebird performed by the Nashville Symphony on Thursday, Nov. 7. The concert, part of the Curb Open Dress Rehearsal program, is free. The performance begins at 10 a.m., and musicians will take a 20-minute break around 11:30. We need to arrive at the Schermerhorn by 9:45 that morning, so we’ll leave the Center at 8:30. Van fee is $6. We’ll stop someplace good for lunch on the way back.
