Clarinetist Dave Bennett and the members of his jazz quartet—drummer Doug Cobb, pianist Tad Weed and Kurt Krahnke on string bass—will feature classic swing era tunes in their concert Sunday, October 28.

Bennett premiered his Tribute to Benny Goodman in November 2003 at Windsor's Capitol Theatre. The concert resulted in his first feature CD of Goodman material.

Bennett’s stage presence, knowledge of the details of Goodman recordings—and his penchant for wire-rim glasses, spats and double-breasted suits—transport listeners back to the swing era.

The concert will begin at 2:30 p.m. at Mackenzie Hall Cultural Centre, 3277 Sandwich Street. Tickets are $15, with a student rate of $5. Order by phone at 519-253-3000, ext. 4212, or purchase online at www.uwindsor.ca/music.
