MJO Featuring Paul Marinaro Perform "The Bowie Project" at FSC 11/18/24 -Nationally acclaimed singer Paul Marinaro and the Metropolitan Jazz Octet performed their unique, introspective, exciting interpretations celebrating a wide range of David Bowie's song legacy.
The musicians masterfully presented a career-spanning selection of songs such as Space Oddity, Changes and Let’s Dance along with early, deeper cuts including Conversation Piece and Letter to Hermione. The Bowie Project explores universal themes that resonate throughout the ages: love, loss, disillusionment, division and trying to find hope in a changing and unfamiliar landscape.
