The meeting will take place on Thursday, Oct. 18 beginning at 12 noon.
Temple Beth Sholom Hazak welcomes Phil Bruschi to its opening luncheon on Oct. 18 at 12 noon.
Bruschi will present “Neil Diamond: Songwriter and Singer.” He will discuss Diamond’s early career to present day and perform such songs as “Sweet Caroline,” “Hello Again,” “Cracklin Rose,” “September Morn,” and many more.
Bruschi has had a long career in the entertainment business and it started at age 9 when he first studied percussion as a drummer. Over the years, he has played all types of music from jazz to rock. He was in that small percentage of drummers who sang lead as well as backup vocals.
Bruschi’s love for singing continued even after stepping out in front of the drums to focus more on vocals in recent years. He has sung in Doo Wop groups, numerous bands, duos and finally as a soloist. As a result of his teaching at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington and involvement in the continuing studies area, Bruschi has created a variety of musical programs that are sometimes referred to as “Edu-Tain-Ment.” It’s a mixture of education and entertainment rolled into one.
Hazak’s meeting will be held at 1901 Kresson Road, Cherry Hill, NJ 08003. The cost of the meeting is $7 for members and $12 for non-members. There is limited seating, attendees must RSVP by Oct. 12. Checks should be made out to to Temple Beth Sholom Hazak. Payment serves as a reservation.
