Great Waters’ Concerts in Town Series returns to Brewster Academy

WOLFEBORO — This summer, Great Waters will present three performances on the Brewster campus in Anderson Hall as part of its Concerts in Town series.

Kicking off the series will be the Abby Mueller Trio on Thursday, July 24. Mueller received a Grammy nomination for the role of Jane Seymour in the Tony Award-winning smash hit “Six: The Musical on Broadway.” She also originated the role of Carole for the First National Tour of “Beautiful: The Carole King Musical” and was brought back twice to reprise her critically acclaimed performance on Broadway. Mueller will be joined on stage by two award-winning special guests, Sharon Kenny and Andrew Mueller.

Kenny, composer and lyricist, is also Mueller’s musical director and has been prominently featured on television worldwide. Andrew, Mueller’s younger brother, has appeared off-Broadway and in several performances in the Chicago area. Together, the three will celebrate the iconic hits and stories of three musical legends: James Taylor, Joni Mitchell, and Carole King.

Next on the summer schedule is piano prodigy Peter Cincotti, who will perform on Saturday, Aug. 16. This singer-songwriter began playing a toy piano at the age of three and, 15 years later, became the youngest artist ever to reach No. 1 on the Billboard jazz chart. He has collaborated with artists ranging from Andrea Bocelli to David Guetta. Cincotti has performed at several prestigious venues worldwide, including Carnegie Hall and Café Carlyle in New York City and L’Olympia in Paris. He has also appeared on television in Netflix’s season three of “House of Cards” and the blockbuster movie “Superman II.” His most recent album, Killer on the Keys, pays tribute to some of the most influential piano icons ever.

The third and final performance of the series will showcase the music of John Denver, performed by singer-songwriter Ted Vigil. Born in Seattle, Washington, and raised in the Olympia area, Vigil began his music career performing in concert, symphonic, and jazz bands throughout school, honing his drummer and singer skills. His performances capture the essence of the late music icon John Denver. Attendees can look forward to familiar tunes such as “Take Me Home, Country Roads,” “Leaving on a Jet Plane,” and “Rocky Mountain High,” to name a few. Vigil will perform three John Denver songs alongside two local music students from Kingswood High School.
