Jazz And Poetry Concert In Orono, Kay Hyatt

General University of Maine Publications

The annual Jazz and Poetry concert blends contemporary and classical jazz, and the reading of selected poems, including the featured reading of Dylan Thomas' "A Child's Christmas in Wales." Presenters are Orono residents Jeffrey Wilhelm, reader, Peggy Jo Wilhelm, flautist, Laura Artesani, piano, and Jim Artesani, bass guitar, and Don Barry of Old Town, drums. This is the 14th year the Wilhelms have presented the Jazz and Poetry holiday celebration, a tradition they brought to Orono in 1995 after moving here from Wisconsin.
