Joined by Jeff Seigel (drums) and Pat Labarbera (sax)\, this quartet promises an electrifying night of dynamic jazz.\nTime & Location \nMay 27\, 2026\, 7:30 PM – 9:15 PM\nBig Picture Theater & Cafe\, 48 Carroll Rd\, Waitsfield\, VT 05673\, USA\nAbout the event \nEmerging from the 1970’s New York City jazz scene\, keyboardist Pete Levin and bass\nplayer Tony Levin has performed and recorded with dozens of the biggest names in\njazz and rock; from Miles Davis and Dave Brubeck\, to Peter Gabriel and John Lennon.\nJoined here by jazz veterans Jeff “Seige” Seigel on drums and Pat Labarbera on\nsaxophone\, expect nothing short of fireworks.\nStyle-wise\, Tony and Pete Levin have had divergent careers. Pete earned a master’s\ndegree from the Juilliard School and became a synthesizer specialist in the New York\nCity recording studio scene. Over the years\, he has graced hundreds of jazz and pop\nrecordings and performances with artists including Gil Evans\, Dave Brubeck\, David\nSanborn\, Miles Davis\, Joe Louis Walker\, Freddie Hubbard\, Annie Lennox\, Charles\nMingus\, Jaco Pastorius and Wayne Shorter. He has released 19 solo albums with\ngroups of varying sizes.\nMeanwhile\, Tony graduated from the Eastman School of Music\, and his bass playing\nquickly landed on notable recordings by John Lennon\, Pink Floyd\, Lou Reed\, Alice\nCooper\, Dire Straits\, Carly Simon\, Judy Collins\, as well as jazz giants Buddy Rich\,\nSteps Ahead\, Gary Burton\, Chuck Mangione\, and Herbie Mann. He has been the long-\ntime recording and touring bass player for Peter Gabriel.\nThey are joined by drummer/composer/educator Jeff Siegel\, and sax player Pat\nLabarbera\, best known as the long-time featured soloist in Buddy Rich’s band.\nThe band’s repertoire draws from 50’-era Jazz\, with excursions into Classical\, Pop\, and\nProgressive Rock genres adapted to the band’s jazz style. Performances now include \ncompositions by Paul Simon\, Peter Gabriel\, King Crimson\, Ennio Morricone\, Ralph\nTowner\, Jimi Hendrix\, and Jimmy Giuffre\, as well as originals.\nTheir musical paths have crossed many times\, backing other artists and playing in\neach others bands. In the late ‘70s they toured together with Paul Simon. But other than\na 1976 recording by their first group – “The Clams” – the Levin Brothers band was their\nfirst time developing a project of their own.

A Socrates Café is an opportunity for dialogue about timeless and timely questions that all human beings deal with. Rather than being a debate or a discussion\, a Socrates Café is a dialogue where participants are encouraged to listen to and learn from one another. This form of discourse- and its focus on the search for knowledge- comes from the great philosopher Socrates\, who observed that “Wisdom Begins in Wonder.” These gatherings are open to all community members\, regardless of age\, experience\, or background. Harwood students who are experienced in leading Socratic Dialogues will facilitate the discussions. Community members of all ages are invited\, and refreshments will be provided.

She quickly transformed from a popular model into a box-office powerhouse\, defying studio expectations and redefining modern celebrity culture. \nA Masterclass in Comedy: Some Like It Hot\nWhile she starred in numerous classics\, her performance in Billy Wilder’s 1959 masterpiece Some Like It Hot remains a crowning achievement. Playing the ukulele-playing Sugar Kane\, Marilyn showcased brilliant comedic timing alongside Tony Curtis and Jack Lemmon.

Recently installed interpretive signage along the route highlights forest management practices that support healthy bird habitat and thriving ecosystems. \nAdditional trail improvements include punchoen and benches in the lower birding meadow and a newly-built trail up to a view of Camel’s Hump. \nJoin us for brief remarks recognizing the partners who helped bring these improvements to life\, followed by guided strolls along the trails and finishing with refreshments in the cabin. \nThe Pratt Refuge borders the vast forests of Camel’s Hump State Park and sits within one of Vermont’s highest-priority interior forest and wildlife connectivity areas—an ecologically rich landscape of northern hardwood and mixedwood forest\, streams\, vernal pools\, and mountain views. Come experience this remarkable landscape and celebrate expanded access to the outdoors! \nIf needed\, the rain date will be Thursday June 11.
