The FREE Summer Concert Series from Orcas Center, Country Corner, OrcaSong Farm, and GiveOrcas/OICF continues in July with Jens Lindemann performing on Sunday, July 7 at 5 p.m. on the Village Green.

As the first classical brass soloist to ever receive the Order of Canada, Jens Lindemann is hailed as one of the most celebrated artists in his instrument’s history and was recently named “International Brass Personality of the Year” (Brass Herald).

Heralded internationally as an outstanding artist, critics have stated: “He played with golden timbre and virtuosic flair” (New York Times)“, “a world-class talent” (Los Angeles Times), “it was one of the most memorable recitals in International Trumpet Guild history” (ITG), “performed brilliantly in the North American premiere of Bernd Alois Zimmermann’s Concerto with the Toronto Symphony” (Toronto Star), and “he gave the virtuoso highlight of the evening with the Montreal Symphony”.

Jens has played both jazz and classical in every major concert venue in the world: from the Philharmonics of New York, Los Angeles, London, Berlin, Moscow and Tokyo to Carnegie Hall and even the Great Wall of China – and he comes to the Village Green this July 7!

Don’t miss this opportunity to see a world-class performer! Another great FREE concert thanks to donations from local businesses including Eastsound Airport Center and Island House Dental.
