While the performance of MacArthur Park by the Pennsbury Concert Jazz Band is not a rarity, since it is played every year at the annual Jazz At Pennsbury concert. This video of the '05 band is a little different than other versions posted on youtube.
For the 2005 show, director Frank Mazzeo set the band up on stage in a modified version of the classic "Kenton V" formation (instead of the usual percussion left, horns right arrangement.) See Stan Kenton's version of MacArthur Park from London in 1972 also posted here on youtube.
This performance is directed by Chris Bygott.
Amazing! Glad I was a part of this. Bob Medve even made that sign over the band and allowed me to paint a few bars. ;) Michael PCJB class of 83
