FREE CONCERT: The Freese Brothers Big Band Salutes the Greatest Generation and the Home Front

March 11 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm
Free

In the spring of 1946, as members of the Greatest Generation continued returning home from Europe and the Pacific, they and their families listened to the soundtrack of the war years. Radio programs and record players offered tunes that had built an emotional bridge from fox holes, ships and air bases to anxious living rooms back home.  The Freese Brothers Big Band offers an 80th anniversary salute to the Greatest Generation and the Home Front with tunes that will transport audiences back to the first peaceful springtime for America after four years of war and worry.
