Count Basie and Duke
Ellington are but a few
recognizable names from
the era. Vocalist and crowd
favorite Denise Perrier is
backed by trombone, bass,
guitar, saxophone, clarinet
and drums, plus additional
vocalizing from the group.
“This music is our pas-
sion,” Swing Fever founder
Bryan Gould said. “We’re
crazy for the classic tunes
from the 1930s and 40s. It’s
romantic, torrid and witty.”
Swing Fever not only
plays music but talks about
it: colorful stories, histori-
cal anecdotes, biographical
sketches about the music and
the people who created and
performed it.
Did you know that Nat
King Cole was a starving
musician in 1943? And that
when he wrote his fi rst hit,
“Straighten Up and Fly
Right,” he sold it for $50? The
rest, as Gould would say, “is
history.”
Doors swing open at 6
p.m. for a no-host wine bar.
At 7 p.m., Swing Fever ups
the tempo. Get ready to tap
your toes and clap your hands.
“Watch out — you might
catch Swing Fever, too!”
Gould said

There’s a new twist on
the Water Music Festival this
year.
San Francisco’s Music at
the Mission Chamber Players
will perform in the Leadbetter
Lighthouse in Ocean Park.
Towering high in the sky, the
lighthouse is on the grounds
of the private 60-acre Lead-
better Farm estate.
On Saturday evening, Oct.
14, the fi re-breathing dragons
guarding the gates, along with
tireless festival volunteers,
welcome ticket holders at 6
p.m. for a no-host wine bar.
The Chamber Players perform
at 7 p.m.
The concert repeats on
Sunday afternoon, Oct. 15.
Gates open at 1 p.m. for a no-
host happy hour. The concert
follows at 2 p.m.
“The Lighthouse seats 100,
which is pretty amazing when
you think of a lighthouse — it
gives you some scope of the
size,” Diane Marshall, the
festival chairwoman, said.
“It provides fabulous sound,
too.”
Saturday evening sells
out well before the concert
date, she said; offering two
different times allows the
festival to offer more people
the opportunity to attend the
chamber music program in a
remarkable setting.
Music at the Mission
Chamber Players is a small,
elite group of musicians who
gather several times a year to
perform at Mission San Jose
in Fremont, California, in a
series they call “Chamber
Music Outside the Box.”
“Our goal is to continuous-
ly strive for artistic excellence
by providing audiences with
provocative, engaging and
high-caliber programs,”
said Rhonda Bradetich, the
group’s fl utist.
Six musicians demonstrate
their expertise on fl ute, piano,
double bass, violin, cello and
viola. Their program includes
Bach, Mozart and Prokof-
iev, and will feature Franz
Schubert’s Piano Quintet in A
Major (aka the “Trout”).
‘Icing on the cake’
In keeping with the
festival’s ongoing dedication
to music programs in area
schools, student performances
precede each concert.
On Friday night, the Ocean
Beach School District student
jazz trio opens the evening
with Christopher Lake and
Tristan Trudell, accompanied
by Tom Trudell. On Saturday
and Sunday, vocalist/pianist
Elle Personius is front-and-
center.
On Monday morning, Oct.
16, Music at the Mission play-
ers will continue the WMF
Education Outreach program,
sharing their talents with area
students.
Each year, a portion
of funds raised goes back
to music programs in the
school district. Locals lodge,
transport and feed the visiting
musicians.
“WMF volunteers do just
about anything they can to
help,” Marshall said. “Then
the musicians put the icing on
the cake, so to speak.” CW
