The Mood Swings Orchestra played on Wednesday May 13 for the residents at Jewish Community Housing for the Elderly, in Brighton. Jasper videotaped, so maybe we'll have some audio or video for you soon. Most of the residents didn't speak English, but music is a universal language,
The Mood Swings Orchestra We're performing for the residents of this skilled nursing and rehab facility. We always enjoy playing for the older folks. They remember this music, and they come alive when they hear it. So many times we've been told how a particuler resident hasn't spoken or shown emotion in so long, and yet when we play they smile, and even sing. It's an honor.

The Mood Swings Orchestra One of our favorite gigs. The Jazz in the Square concert series has been bringing live high quality jazz to Roslindale since September 2003. In addition to providing a great, economical, musical experience, the series contributes to the economic vitality of Roslindale by bringing people into the commercial district in ...the evening where they can eat at one of Roslindale Village's fine restaurants and check out its varied stores. Jazz in the Square is a collaboration between Roslindale Village Main Streets and the Roslindale Congregational Church. http://www.jazzinthesquare.net/
