One great show after another!

Saturday Night Jazz at The Buttonwood Tree - One great show after another!

submitted by Anne-Marie Cannata:

The Buttonwood Tree was graced by the presence of 4 young, talented and amiable musicians last night, to the delight of the patrons who filled the room. 30 people turned out to hear the musical mastery of Nicole Zuraitis, Darren Litzie, Dan Pugach and Craig Akin. Each musician was wonderful in their own right and together they made beautiful music! Nicole's voice was fluid, delicately expressive and in perfect timing with the others. Darren Litzie, a genius on the piano, will be back to The Buttonwood Tree on March 6th with the Collin Wade Jazz Quartet. Dan Pugash, on drums, now living in Brooklyn after moving from his native Israel 3 years ago, promised us a performance with his own group which has toured throughout Japan and Europe. The audience, which came from all over the state and some from Massachusetts, gave the charming quartet a standing ovation after a truly wonderful performance.
