HYE FUSION PERFORMS FRIDAY JULY 23 AT MUSIC ON MEETINGHOUSE GREEN
The Gloucester Meetinghouse Foundation presents Hye Fusion in a free Friday evening concert on Meetinghouse Green
at the corner of Middle and Church Street, July 23 at 6:00 p.m. Hye Fusion integrates music of the Middle East with Western
jazz standards. The musicians play current and traditional instruments including the oud, classical and rhythm guitars, keyboard,
clarinet and saxophone as well as the Middle Eastern doumbek. The result is a dynamic synergy of melodies and rhythms. Free-will
donations go to the evening’s featured local non-profit partner, Maritime Gloucester, a group that inspires students and visitors to
value our maritime heritage, marine science and environmental stewardship. Local food vendor for the evening is Classic Cooks.
The 2021 summer music series is dedicated in memory of Harry Hintlian for his encouragement, generosity, and for making the
Meetinghouse a net zero building. For more information, a full schedule of upcoming concerts, and to sign up for the GMF newsletter,

CONCERT DESCRIPTION
American-born Hye Fusion’s style of integrating Middle eastern jazz comes from their family lineages, with deep roots in the Middle East.
They received their musical training from the New England Conservatory as well as from musical mentors such as Oscar Peterson and Bill Evans.

Music on Meetinghouse Green, now in its sixth season, features nine free Friday evening concerts with great music, favorite foods from local vendors,
and benefits a different North Shore non-profit organization each week through free-will donations from the audience. Concert goers bring lawn chairs
and blankets to spread out across the spacious green. Performances are handicap accessible, parking on the Green is limited to persons with disabilities only.

Inside Seating Open at Bishco!

Recent cool and rainy weather called for soup and a hearty sandwich at Bischo on Main Street. It was hopping at lunch time, so clearly others had the same thoughts. We are happy to see inside seating return and there are a few cosmetic changes to the inside. We had the Italian sub and Italian wedding soup (I guess there was a theme I didn’t notice at the time!).

How Many “Gloucester” Things Can You Find in This Photo?

It occurred to me when standing on the boulevard yesterday that there are so many things that scream “Gloucester” in this photo. What can you see? I see the bridge up, the boulevard, the flags, the Paint Factory (barely), a yacht docked at Ocean Alliance, a schooner, lots of fog, the harbor, Ten Pound Island, the Beauport Hotel, a dog going for a walk with its owner, Pavilion Beach…
