Jack Hutton and Friends
You can order through: 1-888-579-7739 or balamus@muskoka.com Don’t forget that you get a chance to hear Jack every time you visit Bala’s Museum with Memories of Lucy Maud Montgomery! The museum’s 1920 Cecilian upright piano is on the front cover of his book, The World is Waiting for the Sunrise. That’s the one that you may hear him play during your tour.
Quote – "When they made Jack Hutton, they broke the mould": Robin Moore, founder and director of the Barrie Jazz and Blues Festival, June, 2004.

You
can hear Jack playing on Lake Muskoka all July and August every
Thursday evening in July and August. He will be aboard the RMS Segwun,
the oldest steamboat of its kind still operating in North America.
The three and a half hour trip, departing from the Gravenhurst wharf,
is quite an experience. As the incredible Muskoka scenery passes
by, you will hear Jack playing everything from Scott Joplin to the
Beatles. Down below, you have an up-close opportunity to see how
a steamship was fed by coal 100 years ago. For times and rates,
contact the Muskoka Steamship Society at 1-866-687-6667 or at 
Jack
will be the MC for a Gravenhurst Opera House performance by two
jazz legends -- Dick Hyman, the most versatile jazz pianist on the
planet, and Peter Appleyard, a Toronto-based vibes player who Benny
Goodman featured night after night in his band. Last summer, Jack
brought Dick Hyman, a long-time friend and mentor, to Gravenhurst
for what turned out to be a totally sold-out evening. This year,
the audience will hear two legends -- Hyman and Appleyard -- for
the price of one! The only thing Jack has asked for specifically
is to hear Dick and Peter play Richard Rodgers' classic tune "Lover",
with Peter playing the top octaves of Dick's piano with two fingers
at blistering speed. To reserve tickets, contact the Gravenhurst
Opera House at 1-888-495-8888. Don't wait too long! This promises
once again to be a sell-out with disappointed late-comers.
Jack
Hutton and Friends has developed quite a following. The quintet
only performs once a year, and usually for sold-out audiences. This
year it will be at the Gravenhurst Opera House with a segment highlighting
the music of Richard Rodgers and his two quite different lyricist
partners, Lorenz Hart and Oscar Hammerstein. On hand again will
be Brian Bauer playing every saxophone known to man, Bob Livingston
on trombone, Ric Giorgi on string bass and bass saxophone, Willie
Wilson on banjo and guitar, and Jack on piano. To reserve, contact
the Gravenhurst Opera House at 1-888-495-8888.
