On Saturday, Performance Music at the University of Scranton will host the Anderson Twins Sextet performing their acclaimed program, “The Fabulous Dorseys,” to open Performance Music’s spring season. The performance begins at 7:30 p.m. in the Houlihan-McLean Center, Mulberry Street and Jefferson Avenue, downtown Scranton. Admission is free and the concert is open to the public. Seating is on a first-come, first-seated basis. The Anderson brothers’ program brings the story of the Dorsey brothers to life. Performed by a sextet of New York musicians, the show traces the Dorseys’ journey from their start in the coal regions of Northeast Pennsylvania as teenage professionals on trombone and saxophone through their rise as national stars with the Dorsey Brothers Band, to the dramatic 1935 sibling split that sent them on separate paths, followed by their long-awaited reunion a decade later. For information on the performance, call 570-941-7624, email music@scranton.edu or visit scranton.edu/music. For info on the Andersons, visit peterandwillanderson.com.
