CLARKS SUMMIT — Bill Carter and the Presbybop Sextet will perform a jazz concert on Sunday, April 7 at 4 p.m. at the First Presbyterian Church, 300 School St.

Carter, a resident jazz pianist, gathers a consort of musicians for an afternoon of the extraordinary music of Herbie Hancock. The rich harmonies, funky rhythms, and memorable melodies of Hancock’s tunes will be interpreted by trumpeter Jeff Stockham, Mike Carbone on sax, trombonist Andrew Williams, drummer Tyler Dempsey, and Joe Michaels on bass.

This event is open to the public, free of charge, but a free-will offering will be taken. These activities are part of the Arts at First Presbyterian Concert Series at the church.

This program receives support from the Pennsylvania Partners in the Arts Program (administered by the Pocono Arts Council), a Lackawanna County Arts & Cultural Grant and numerous individual donors.

For more information or directions, call the church at 570-586-6306 or visit www.fpccs.org.
