Trombonist Bill Watrous (pictured) is coming to St. Louis later this month to perform in a concert to be held at 7:00 p.m., Friday, February 24, at the Scottish Rite Cathedral Auditorium, 3633 Lindell Blvd.

Watrous is a veteran of the big bands of Quincy Jones, Maynard Ferguson, Johnny Richards, and Woody Herman, as well as the live band for TV host Merv Griffin's talk show; the jazz-rock group Ten Wheel Drive; and his own big band, the Manhattan Wildlife Refuge. He'll be backed in St. Louis by The Big Little Big Band, an eleven-piece ensemble of local musicians led by trumpeter Scott Vignassi.

The concert is a fundraiser for the Scottish Rite Cathedral Preservation Association. General admission advance tickets are $20 for adults, $15 for students with current student ID, and can be purchased by mail from Scottish Rite Cathedral Concert Series, 3633 Lindell Blvd, St. Louis, MO 63108.
