Clarinetist Brad Terry will kick off the Chocolate Church Arts Center’s 2018 Kill The Chill Winter Concert Series at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 20. Terry will be joined by guitarist Peter Herman in the Chocolate Church Annex, located at 804 Washington St. in Bath, for this jazz instrumental concert. Doors will open at 7 p.m.

“I have been playing this wonderful American music called ‘Jazz’ ever since my neighbor Benny Goodman convinced my mother to buy me a clarinet when I was 14,” said Bath resident Brad Terry, according to a news release from the Chocolate Church Arts Center. “I’ve been lucky to have known and be challenged by, played and recorded with some of the world’s greatest Jazz players and now, at 80 I’m being challenged again by the talented Peter Herman.”

This duo will play a variety of standard jazz tunes and spontaneously create musical conversations that transport the audience to a surprising and unlikely musical place. Terry has known these tunes for 50-60 years but Herman brings with him a flood of new and refreshing harmonic and melodic ideas.

The Kill The Chill concert series features musicians who perform in the intimate venue of the downstairs Annex. Seating is limited.

Tickets cost $12 in advance or $15 at the door. For tickets or more information, call 4442-8455 or visit chocolatechurcharts.org.
