Maple Leaf Seven plays traditional jazz and classic swing for dances, concerts, weddings, community fairs, Mardi Gras events and worship services. Instrumentation of clarinet, tenor sax, trumpet, trombone, piano, bass and drums allows for stylistic presentation of a traditional Dixieland sound and classic small-band swing. Maple Leaf Seven uses similar instrumentation with tuba to provide traditional "German band" repertoire for Oktoberfest-style celebrations. The seven members of Maple Leaf hail from northern Vermont and New Hampshire and have been offering up their special blend of Maple flavored musical Gumbo since 1978. CD's are available. Venues have included the Mount Washington Hotel, Eastern States Exposition and Burke Mountain Resort. CD's are available: "Sweet Jesus" spirituals, hymns and gospel tunes; "Tappin' Time" traditional jazz and swing standards.
