Dirk Hillyer is one of those musicians who just oozes musicality. And he oozes natural charm just as easily, a combo that makes for one fantastic pops conductor! The HFO formed in 1998, and has entertained the North Shore area with its perfect combination of light classical, big band, American standards and movie music ever since. You've probably seen them on Derby Wharf as part of the 4th of July celebration in Salem-- my favorite 4th of July experience, anywhere!
Their next performance is at Abbott Hall in Marblehead, a tribute to the Armed Forces with an "Across America" theme. Can you guess the songs from California to Virginia to Tennessee?
The concert is May 16, 7:30 pm. Tickets: 781-631-3515
