Mardi gras in Greenville? Not quite, but “Swinging with the Saints” at First Presbyterian Church on Fourth Street will be the next best thing. On Sunday, February 10 at 3:00 p.m, preceding Fat Tuesday and Lent, the church will present a concert for the community.Guests will enjoy a variety of musical styles performed by many talented musicians. Melody Line will perform “Dessert Alert!”, “Not so Boring Minuet” and “Accentuate the Positive”. Linda Payne will sing “Alto’s Lament” and then join with Jonathan Payne on French horn for a clever duet. Jonathan will follow that with a French Horn solo of his own.
Changing the pace of the program, Nicole Manges will play violin solos followed by Terri and Darrell Fryman joining on the piano duet “This Little Light of Mine”. The Presby Combo, consisting of Jane tester on bass, Brad Hare on drums, and Terri Fryman, piano, will perform selections by Mancini, Brubeck and Wolaver.
The concert will close with everyone joining to sing “When the Saints Go Marching In”. Refreshments will be served following the program.
