After opening the 2011-2012 with Dmitri Berlinsky (violin) and Elena Baksht (piano), the Nassau Music Society announces the second event of the year on Friday, November 4th at 8pm at the Performing Arts Centre of the College of The Bahamas and on Saturday, November 5th at 7:30 pm at St. Paul's Church Hall, Lyford Cay featuring Terry Waldo.

Terry is often considered the living link to the ragtime and jazz masters of the past. He is the prot?g? of the late Eubie Blake, and he also studied and performed with many of the early jazz masters in New Orleans and the West Coast revival legends such as Turk Murphy. He is recognizes as not only a virtuoso ragtime, stride and blues pianist but also a vocalist, an arranger, a comedian?famous for his dry wit?and leader of many highly regarded musical groups. He is a composer not only of rags and show tunes, but of movie and TV scores as well.

The Society's goal this Season is to increase the numbers of persons attending the concerts and spread the appreciation of all types of music. They encourage all to promote their concerts with friends and families so more persons can be exposed to beautiful music.

Tickets are $25 for members, $35 for non-members and $10 for students if you book in advance. An additional $5 is charged at the door if there are any seats left. Box offices: A.D. Hanna & Co.
