Judy Collins in Kelowna

Judy Collins is a truly inspirational musician and her songs have touched many hearts. This weekend (Friday, March 27th 2009) you can enjoy an evening with Judy Collins in Kelowna at Community Theatre (located on 1735 Water Street) starting 8.00 pm.

Judy Collins made her public debut performing Mozart's "Concerto for Two Pianos" but it was the music of such artists as Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger, as well as the traditional songs of the folk revival, that sparked Judy Collins' love of lyrics. In 1961, Judy Collins released her first album, A Maid of Constant Sorrow, at the age of 22 and began a thirty-five year association with Jac Holzman and Elektra Records. Judy is also noted for her rendition of Joni Mitchell's "Both Sides Now" on her classic 1967 album, Wildflowers. "Both Sides Now" has since been entered into the Grammy's Hall of Fame. Winning "Song of the Year" at the 1975 Grammy's Awards show was Judy's version of "Send in the Clowns," a ballad written by Stephen Sondheim for the Broadway musical "A Little Night Music."

The tickets for the show are priced around $49.50 and can be bought by calling: 250-762-5050.
