WDCB Encore Film Series Tony Bennett: The Music Never Ends

WDCB Encore Film Series Tony Bennett: The Music Never Ends

Presented by WDCB Public Radio at College of DuPage - Jack H. Turner Conference Center

$10 each

Join WDCB for a special screening of Tony Bennett: The Music Never Ends!

Bennett’s musical accomplishments as a hit maker are many, and his interactions with jazz giants like Bill Evans, Duke Ellington and Count Basie have been plentiful too. He’s also led an amazing life outside of music. Bennett was a foot soldier in the US Army’s 63rd Infantry Division as the unit fought its way through Germany in 1945 and helped liberate concentration camps as the war ended. In 1965, Bennett walked in the Selma-to-Montgomery March alongside Martin Luther King Jr. to support the civil rights movement. He’s also a skilled painter, and has remained active as a visual artist all through the years. This excellent documentary film brings together archival footage, along with conversations and concert performances to tell his story.
