A multi-instrument phenomenon, Dave Bennett is a clarinet
virtuoso who plays electric guitar, piano, drums and vocalizes. He
is the only artist anywhere saluting The Roots of Pop: covering
music from the Swing Era to early Rockabilly and Country, to Elvis
Presley, the Beatles and more. Dave is a blazing clarinet sensation
playing the “swing style” of Benny Goodman. This show is a BARN
BURNER! DON'T MISS IT!

Piano Capital Fund
What is RCCA?
The River Cities Concert Association is a non-profit organization
of music lovers who buy yearly memberships to fund a season of
concerts of the highest quality family entertainment. We contract
with Allied Concert Services in Plymouth, Minnesota, whose representative joins us at an annual fall meeting to plan the following
year’s series. Our membership drive begins each spring to enlist
season ticket subscribers. You will receive individual tickets to each
concert in the mail this fall. Please pay close attention to your
ticket mailing as it will explain a special program we will be having
with the Brown County Civic Concert Association. Find out how
you can go to a free concert in Green Bay!
We hope you have been enjoying the beautiful sounds of our Concert Grand Piano. Your donations will help us with
ongoing service and maintenance as well as future enhancements to keep the piano in prime performance condition.

Concert sponsorships are available on a first-come, first-served basis for an individual concert performance. Your name
