The Lennon Project
The Lennon Project is a fundraising event in partnership with Raue Center for the Arts in Crystal Lake on Saturday, May 3 at 7:00 p.m.
Featuring the songs and the life of John Lennon in a chronological soundscape, Jay Goeppner assumes the role of John Lennon. The 100-minute retrospective begins in 1966 when the Beatles made the momentous decision to stop touring and concentrate solely on music composed in the studio which led to albums like Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, Rubber Soul, Revolver, The White Album, Abbey Road and the rooftop concert for Let It Be, as the Beatles final performance.
The second half of the program showcases Lennon’s solo career from The Plastic Ono Band to his signature album, Imagine, to Sometime in New York City, Mind Games, Walls & Bridges, Rock & Roll and concludes with selections from John and Yoko’s final recording, Double Fantasy, released prior to his death.
Jay Goeppner and his Soundtracks band intertwine songs with multimedia images to create the monumental musical and emotional impact that John Lennon brought to the world.
The public is invited and encouraged to sponsor, donate and attend this fundraising event.
