West Seattle resident Jeff Taylor plays tuba for the Pontiac Bay Symphony and was profiled in the West Seattle Herald online here:
Highline resident Clint Kelly, who plays string bass for the symphony, is also mentioned.
Their last concert's theme was Old-Time Radio. Each Pontiac Bay performance embraces a theme. One concert focused on movie theme songs, including “Lord of the Rings,” “Jurassic Park,” “Star Wars,” and “2001 A Space Odyssey." Another celebrated the Western movie and TV show genre, and that song list included “Rawhide,” and “The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly,” a Clint Eastwood cult-classic.
