Closing the Emmanuel Parish Brown Bag concert series at noon on Wednesday, August 25 will be Martin Lund and guests.
Also featured will be Mackie Blackburn and Robin Gropp, who will play their violins. Mackie, who will be a senior this fall at Orcas High School, received the Virgil Cleveland Memorial Scholarship this year, and attended the Seattle Youth Symphony Marrowstone Music Camp in Bellingham. This scholarship is funded by donations at the Brown Bag Concerts.
Martin Lund is a versatile composer, arranger, and musician who plays many instruments including piano, flute, saxophone, clarinet, accordion, in many styles, including classical, jazz, blues, rock and country. He spent over 20 years in Los Angeles playing a variety of music in radio and television.
Martin is regularly featured in productions at the Orcas Center and every year hosts local musicians in his One World Music concerts, benefiting the Fun House.
The Music Committee of Emmanuel Parish thanks all the artists who have generously contributed their musical talents this summer to the Brown Bag series, making this annual scholarship possible.
