About The Event

Joseph N. Rubin's Orchestra pays tribute to the music that won "The Great War" in Over There: The Music of World War One. This concert will transport audiences on a musical journey through popular music of the war years of 1914-1918 by some of the greatest American composers of all time including George M Cohan, Jerome Kern, and Victor Herbert. Immortal songs "Over There," "K-K-K Katy," "Smiles," "How Ya Gonna Keep 'em Down on the Farm," "Goodbye Broadway, Hello France" and more will be brought to life again in their original orchestrations for the first time in a century. Heidi Swinford, favorite leading soprano on Northern Ohio stages, will recreate selections originally introduced by Vaudeville stars Nora Bayes and Elsie Janis.

Doors open at 7pm for the 7:30 performance.
