“The Dawn Basham Trio plays everything from jazz standards to songs from the Great American Songbook,” said Bonnie Stelzer, the library's director of community relations.
“Not only is it entertaining but it is a fundraiser for the library.”

The program ends at 2 p.m. Sunday, April 26 with violinist, Marshall “Dick” Frank, a retired Miami-Dade homicide detective, and pianist Jay “Doc” Barnhart, a retired physician and forensic pathologist.
“They have an entertaining program entitled 'Dick and the Doc' featuring Broadway show tunes, classical, tango, Italian, Irish, Jewish music and more,” Stelzer said.
