Sidney Bechet Tribute Night

Category: dances

Sidney Bechet has his day! Tonight, Boston Swing Central welcomes Alex Abdoulaev back to help us pay tribute to New Orleans Jazz progenitor and saxophone and clarinet giant. BSC DJs have been slipping his tracks into their playlists with superb effect for years. Everytime, they play “Joshua Fit the Battle of Jericho” or “Blues My Naughty Sweetie Gives to Me” the dance floor fills with excitement…and afterwards a few people come up and ask who was responsible…and for those of you who do not know this amazing artist, perhaps this evening will help you to recognize his infectious clarinet and sax solos.

Lesson: 8pm to 9pm (included with admission)
Dancing: 9pm to 12 midnight
Admission: $10 (general), $8 (students and seniors with valid ID)

What is BSC?

Boston Swing Central is a dancer-formed, non-profit, volunteer-run organization dedicated to promoting positive and fun swing dancing experiences in Boston.

We have two primary objectives. First, to provide a weekly Friday night dance that caters to the desires of dancers of all levels. This means a dance that is centrally located, on public transportation, and reasonably priced.

Second, to champion the diverse voices within our community by remaining open and neutral with regards to information and promotion of other swing dancing events in the greater Boston area and by striving to feature a wide variety of teachers, bands, and DJs.
