If you have not reached Birch Creek Performance Center in Egg Harbor for a concert this summer, you are running out of notes to hear. Including tonight's show (8/2), just six shows remain in the second Big Band Jazz session, the final of four sessions, including Percussion, Steel Band, and World Music and Symphony. Executive Director Mona Christensen continues to be amazed by the quality of performers they have welcomed to their campus this summer, who have performed no less than three shows a week since June 20th. It is not just the students who wow audiences inside the concert barn, either. Christensen says their faculty often flexes its musical muscle, which includes access to music that has not been seen in decades.

Christensen also advised music lovers to look out for pop-up concerts performed around the county by their student ambassadors. The last Big Band Jazz concert is scheduled for August 10th. You can listen to our full interview with Christensen by clicking this link.
