Bickford Theater Schedule
Return to NJJS
Wednesday, September 22, 8 PM. The clarinetist returns after a sellout last year, bringing the same band with him once again. Why tamper with success? That's Vinnie Corrao playing masterful guitar, with Brian Nalepka on bass and Kevin Dorn behind the drum set. A band made up of leaders, one might argue. Vaché's clarinet can be downright blistering as well as warm and inviting, and his graceful playing makes even complicated pieces seem easy.



This series is temporarily quartered at the Toms River Library building while its home at Ocean County College is under renovation. It's less than a mile from Parkway exit 81; directions below. Request tickets, directions from the OCC Box Office at (732) 255-0500.

Concerts are one long set, from 8 to 9:30 PM, allowing working people to attend and still get home at a decent hour. The tab is reasonable too: only $13 in advance, $15 at the door. Ticket info below.

The New Jesey Jazz Society is a proud co-sponsor of Jazz for Shore.


All concerts start 8 pm. Ticket info below.
