The Covina Center for the Performing Arts proudly presents the third in our series of special events for Season 2010. Jay Munns and The Sentimental Sisters will be appearing February 4, 5, and 6 at the newly constructed state of the Art Theatre at Citrus and Badillo in downtown Covina.
Munns is the featured keyboardist and arranger for The Sentimental Sisters, a trio of local singers, Marilyn Cluff, Renee Starr, and Janna O'Bryant, who recreate the styles, rhythms and harmonies of the Andrew Sisters and other musical headliners of the 1940's.
"The Sentimental Sisters were featured last winter in CCPA's Cabaret Series," Executive Producing Director Retha Champion explained, "and the warm reception they received from our audiences made it imperative that we move them to the main stage as a special event for the new year. The group recaptures highlights of America in the forties, when the musical events at the USO bolstered the spirit of men and women serving in America's armed forces."
"Audiences will not fail to be moved by their special treatment of songs, harmonies and rhythms from the great American songbook," she concluded. All three members of the group are San Gabriel Valley residents.
Curtain is at 8 pm for all three performances and all tickets are $35.
Tickets for the event can be obtained by calling the CCPA box office at 626-331-8133 or by visiting the CCPA website at www.covinacenter.com.
