"Of Thee I Swing"

This
musical review is an original work that recreates a late night cabaret show at a
New York Broadway hotel during its heyday in the thirties and forties.
It showcases unique arrangements of popular songs of World War I,
The Depression Era, and World War II.

The
show features Kaija Bonde with able hands of Gene
McGowan on piano. Gene was the
brilliant leader of the United States Navy
Band
choral group, the Sea Chanters for
several years. He is well known in the area for
his piano virtuosity.
The full Gene McGowan Jazz Trio, adding bass and percussion, can also
support the show. We are
considering recording a soundtrack and doing a larger ensemble version as well.
