The Redlands family ymCa pResenTs: The 48Th annual

Holiday Home tour

Sunday, Dec. 6; 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Redlands knows how to celebrate the holidays — a season that reminds us of the need to help others during

a time when faith and fun co-mingle. The Redlands Family YMCa Holiday

Home Tour, in its 48th annual edition this year, captures the spirit and meaning of the season as six families open their homes to benefit a great cause: legal aid. Managed by the YMCa, this program provides afford-able legal services to individuals and families dealing with difficult legal matters, including divorce, custody and guardianship.

This year’s tour takes in a colorful mix of spaces, from modern and eclectic to historic and uniquely southern Californian.

don’t miss local food maven Martha stewart’s colorful, exotic home (her kitchen is incredible) or the historic rambling hilltop home on Garden street and the quaint Colonial cottage built in 1924. The Gerrard family homes and the evans home bring in more approaches to modern and southwestern living in California with an emphasis on art, entertaining and

outdoor living. (This issue includes a map to the homes on Page 36.)

Tickets are $25 in advance, $30 on the day of the tour. For $75, patron tickets include a champagne brunch at the Redlands Country Club and front-of-the-line access during the tour. Tickets may be purchased at the Y branch at 500 e. Citrus ave., by phone at 909-798-9622, or online at www.ymcaeastvalley.org.

Mark dec. 6 on your calendars — this is an event not to be missed.

while the home tour may grab the headlines, Redlands folks also know to set aside at least a few hours to stop by the YMCa gymnasium to do some holiday shopping and take home some baked goods they might slyly claim as their own.

The 36th annual YMCa Holiday Boutique & Pantry, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., dec. 5-6, features wonderful treats as well as a fine collection of handmade jewelry, art pieces and other hand-crafted treasures. Proceeds also go to support legal aid.

During a walk-through in late october, the

white board in the lobby at the redlands Family YMCa gave the daily update: running track open, upstairs open, aoa center and restrooms behind

Fitness Center closed. Due to construction, routes around the complex that’s evolved

from the circa 1929 building were circuitous, and classes — yoga, barre and spin — were floating from one room to another. But despite the work downstairs, the second floor with its lovely chapel room, community room with stage and kitchen for cooking classes were already in use.

Day-to-day schedule updates were being posted on the Y app and online, and renovation was proceeding apace on the rooms adjacent to the YMCa’s original front entrance where a revived community space, including a cozy hearth, were taking shape.

it’s been a long road for the Y. the Cornerstone Project culminates six years of revitalization

and expansion at a cost of $15.5 million, according to Darwin Barnett, YMCa CEo, who thankfully reports the work has been largely funded through charitable campaigns and the kindness of donors.

the renovations, he says, make the YMCa, not just a gym, but a true community treasure.

“throughout all of the changes, we have been committed

to finding a balance between creating a new, modern facility as well as preserving the rich history of our building.

“Because of the support and kindness of our donors, our revived and renewed facility will be enjoyed by many generations to come,” he added.

work is expected to be complete in December, with a grand opening targeted for January 2016.

“I was in a world of pain before my back surgery. Now the world

is mine again, thanks to SJI.” – Mrs. Lloy K.

L loy Keeling loved traveling–her back didn’t. Only a spinal fusion could give her a

passport out of debilitating pain.

“I was impressed with how advanced the Spine & Joint Institute is. Their staff is

completely focused on getting you back on your feet as fast as possible. I was walking the

same day I had surgery!”

Redlands Community Hospital’s Spine & Joint Institute is ranked in the top 5% in Orthopedic Services for spine

procedures and hip and knee replacements.* A choreographed, patient-focused program yields the best possible

experience and results. You’ll fi nd a proven record of high quality outcomes and outstanding patient satisfaction.

“I was an Operating Room nurse, and I can’t stress enough how great their care is,” says Lloy. “It was a very

positive experience–and I’m positive no place else compares.” For more information about spine, hip or knee

procedures, call SJI at (909) 335-5642.

Deterioration of vertebrae may require spinal fusion to alleviate pain and add stability.

For more than 90 years, this Colonial cottage has stood gracefully on this tree-lined street, and the current owners have taken care to preserve and protect its heritage while also bringing it into the modern era.

Built in 1924, the cream-colored house with the green trim and red brick exterior welcomes guests through its curved-top front door. It is original to the home, as are most of the windows and the marvelous coved ceilings and oak floors in the living and dining rooms.

a spectacular collection of antiques enhances the house.a French oak dining table and chairs — with original

cane seats — from the 1850s and a hutch from Ireland from the same period are showcased in the dining room, which is painted “tomato soup red,” according to the homeowner. among its other treasures are a Victrola and a 120-year-old calendar clock, one of five antique clocks throughout the house. an upright 1928 steinway sits in the living room.

the remodeled kitchen pays homage to an earlier time with its prim white cabinetry, glass-front cupboards and black hardware, as well as the butcher-block-topped island.

much of the four-bedroom home retains its original wainscoting along with oilcloth wallpaper. one bathroom is still outfitted with lavender, pink and black tiles. the office/guest room includes a murphy bed, while the master accommodates a small, tiled bathroom.

Winding stairs lead to an attic bedroom, which beckons children with its aqua walls, play area and diminutive bathroom. a balcony and stairs off this room lead down to the pool and backyard.

The Clem home’s distinctive style emerges from its oak floors, coved ceilings and curved frames on doors, windows and pass-throughs. In the dining room, left, a hutch from Ireland and a “tomato soup red” wall add warmth to the space.

By Amy Bentley

looking for a delicious plate

of pretty holiday cookies to share

with your neighbors? How about

a freshly baked cake?

Forget the supermarket or big box store.

The Redlands YMCA Pantry is the place to

shop on Dec. 5 and 6 for sweet treats such as

peppermint bark, Divinity candy, fudge,

brownies, cookies and cakes.

These goodies aren’t just fresh and

homemade — they are prepared with love

by 150 local bakers working for a good

cause. Each year, they donate their time to

prepare delicacies and specialty foods like

jams and jellies that are donated to the

YMCA for its annual event.

Volunteers host the Pantry in conjunction

with the Y’s annual Holiday Home Tour

and Boutique, which is Dec. 6 this year.

The Pantry is open both weekend days from

9 a.m. to 4 p.m. in the Redlands YMCA

gymnasium. All proceeds are donated to the

Y’s Legal Aid Clinic, which last year received

a $6,000 donation from the Pantry.

The Pantry is a tradition that brings folks

out early to line up and buy their favorite

goodies. Shoppers love Sue Hardy’s English

toffee, Carolyn Whetzel’s pomegranate jelly,

Char Burgess’ sherry cakes, Elaine

Brubacher’s jams and Sue Scheirer’s

whimsically decorated rice treat trains.

The Pantry is a group effort. For the past

seven years, a core group of seven Redlands

women — known as the “Pantry ladies” —

have taken the lead to make the Pantry

happen. They are: Mary Carruthers, Patsy

oppenheim, Sue Scheirer, Caroleen Cosand,

Lori Hatfield, Jan Billings and Anne Smith.

oppenheim enjoys baking fancy holiday

cookies each year. She spends several weeks

prepping and then bakes for four or five days

straight to prepare “dozens and dozens and

dozens” of cookies for the Pantry.

Her dining table is covered with

Seasonal sweets from the

‘Pantry ladies’

tablecloths and decorations as she prepares to

make peanut butter blossom cookies, decorated

cookies cut into shapes, Rice Krispies treat

wreaths, and peppermint and almond bark.

Many of the recipes came from her mother.

Working with her and the other main Pantry

ladies are about a dozen others who spend the

Friday before the Pantry opens packaging

everything for sale.

“We make hundreds of cookie trays and

package things on little plates in cellophane

wrap with big bows,” said Oppenheim, who

has been involved in the Pantry project for

18 years.

The packaging alone is a huge job, she noted.

“Imagine the mounds of food we have. It’s the

closest thing to Santa’s workshop I’ve seen.”

“It’s just a wonderful time. It’s amazing how

the community comes together to do this and

we’re always thankful to the people who help

bake and package,” she said.

Prices range from 50 cents for a small bag

of cookies or a small loaf of bread to $8 for

an assorted cookie tray.

Anyone interested in baking for the Pantry

or helping with the packaging on Friday,

Dec. 4, should call Patsy Oppenheim at

909-793-3913.

Orange Drop Cookies

Tried and true cookie recipe using Redlands citrus as the star ingredient.

Ingredients½ cup shortening2 eggs1 tablespoon finely grated orange rind½ cup orange juice2½ cups all-purpose flour1½ teaspoons baking soda½ teaspoon salt½ cup chopped nuts

DirectionsPreheat oven to 375

degrees Fahrenheit. Line cookie sheet with parchment paper.

In a large mixing bowl, cream sugar and shortening. Add eggs and beat well. Add grated orange rind and orange juice, mix. Sift flour, baking soda, and salt; add to other ingredients and beat. Add chopped nuts, mix.

Drop large tablespoons of dough on parchment paper. Bake at 375 F, for 10-15 minutes. Remove from pan and cool on rack.

Icing preparationMeasure into a mixing

bowl, 1 tablespoon orange juice, ½ teaspoon finely grated orange rind, 1 tablespoon margarine, and 1 cup powdered sugar. Whisk ingredients until smooth. Frost when cookies are almost cooled.

Peppermint Bark Candy

Easy and fun to make, always a best seller at the Pantry.

IngredientsBag of candy melts (available at grocery or craft stores)Peppermint candy canes

Other items neededPlastic storage bags with zip lock seals, hammer, kitchen towel and parchment paper

DirectionsUnwrap candy canes,

place canes in plastic storage bag. Seal bag along top, leaving a small opening for air to escape. Place this bag into another

plastic storage bag. Pat to create an even layer of candy canes. Place on one half of a kitchen towel and cover top of bag with other half of towel. Pound with hammer, adjusting the power of the hit to create the desired size of candy pieces. Move hammer around bag, turn towel over to crush the larger pieces. The sharp chards of the hard candy will break through the plastic bag.

Microwave candy wafers according to package instructions for melting. Stir melted candy until smooth. Pour onto parchment paper, spread with back of spoon to a ¼- to -inch thickness. Sprinkle with crushed candy pieces. Let cool until hard, usually 30 minutes. Crack into pieces. Store in plastic bags.

Note: May use white, milk or dark chocolate chips instead of candy melts. Candy canes may be substituted with lemon drops or hard candy, and (without the hammer action) sliced almonds, any type of nut, or small candy (such as M&Ms).

The Evans Home732 Buckingham Drive

The large kitchen features an abundance

of cabinets, recessed and drop-down lighting and

a center island with extra counter space for

convenience. Far right, a vibrant purple accent

wall provides a dramatic touch near the entrance.


The first thing you notice upon entering this upsc]ale ranch home on the city’s north side is the vibrant purple wall. it’s a dramatic touch in a house

where the homeowner describes the décor as “contemporary eclectic.”

Built in 1989, this house is 2,600 square feet and sits on slightly more than half an acre. it features three bedrooms, 2¾ baths and an office where the walls are lined with cork. Unique and one-of-a-kind artwork adorn much of the home, including a stunning purple and gold acrylic piece that hangs above the fireplace and brings to mind swimming sea life. A pair of giraffes peer down from an alcove near the ceiling.

the home features several beautiful vessel sinks — in the bathrooms and at the wet bar — and along with the purple hue the house is painted six other colors, including a

soothing sand tone. the master suite showcases a chocolate wall and a large renovated bathroom with several custom touches, including a spacious walk-in closet, expansive shower and soaking tub.

the airy kitchen sits off the family room and includes a wide center island with granite countertops, purple accents and a bank of windows that look out to the pleasing backyard. there, a tiered pool and landscaping using native plants provide the perfect oasis for an afternoon’s escape

The master bedroom features a comfy bed

with a custom-built headboard, seating

area and glass doors that open to the

backyard with its pool and putting

green. The kitchen, far right, boasts lots

of counter space.


Southwest aficionados will be thrilled when they step into this home near Redlands country club. the ambiance begins at the curb, as the circular drive passes an

array of native plants and succulents, including aeonium, agave and sedum. the low profile of the house, along with its terra cotta accents and roof (covered in Mexican tile called, appropriately, “Redlands”), invite comparisons to a lovely hacienda.

inside, knotty alder is used extensively in the single-story, 1,900-square-foot house, which encompasses two bedrooms and two bathrooms. it was built in 1953 and recently renovated, bringing to life the crisp, clean southwest theme throughout.

the galley kitchen includes spacious custom cabinetry, tiled countertops, a Viking range and 14-inch floor tiles. it backs up to the living room, where a stunning trussed

ceiling, wet bar and rustic fireplace with a flagstone surround and hearth beckon visitors.

in the master suite, a custom headboard with cubicles and drawers is the centerpiece of the bedroom, which leads into an oversized bathroom outfitted with pedestal sink and enormous door-free shower.

from the bedroom, trifold glass doors open to a flagstone patio that overlooks the glistening pool, a putting green, and outdoor kitchen and living area.

similar glass doors lead to this covered patio from the living room. accents include colorful Pendleton blankets with southwest designs, as well as an array of artwork that harkens to the region.

The Gerrard Rice Home324 W. Mariposa Drive


From the brick red and sage green front exterior to the spacious Arts and Crafts-style patio and bubbling stream in the rear, there is something interesting to catch your eye in this

eclectic mid-Century home set near the end of a tranquil winding road.

The 2,400-square-foot house, built in 1953, has been completely remodeled, and unique, quirky and sentimental touches abound throughout.

The TV room wall’s three shelves, 26 drawers and four cupboards surround a fireplace and 6-foot-tall wine cooler. Nearby stands a bar outfitted with stools and a small sink — with a white giraffe’s head overseeing the fun.

The latter is but one of many offbeat items which, along with splendid photographs throughout, showcase the homeowner’s love of travel and photography.

In the dining room, the centerpiece is a spectacular coffered oak ceiling featuring Tiffany-style lights. Not to be outdone are matching twin display cases that house a collection of silver and crystal, much of which was handed down from the homeowner’s mother.

The kitchen is a cook’s dream, with a massive center island, stainless appliances, a Thermador built-in espresso machine, split farmhouse sink and cupboards galore. Windows along the back wall overlook the outdoor kitchen and living space, which in turn overlooks a gleaming pool and sloping stream.

The maroon and gold master suite includes sleeping and sitting areas, built-in floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, two vanities plus a dressing table, and a three-sided fireplace. Granite-topped bedside tables that hang from the wall are special touches here.

The Green Home1721 Allison Way


Many of the rooms in the Green home are decorated with souvenirs collected from her travels.

At home, local cooking guru

Martha Green performs her craft in a kitchen that’s

both functional and beautifully

appointed.

Restaurateur Martha Green is known for her philanthropy and generosity around redlands, and this year that extends to the holiday home tour. her stunning home is part of the 2015 event and visitors will be

swept away in an exotic wonderland.the 3,878-square-foot residence, built in 1993, houses

a remarkable collection of items from her many travels, most with an Indian or african flair. scarves are displayed in ornate frames, a 5-foot-tall urn stands near the entry, several genie-like lamps are scattered throughout the house as are dozens of snails, camels and elephants in materials including stone and crystal. a brass inkwell is shaped like a camel and enormous brass trays can be found on several walls.

the great room’s plush Kasbah-like interior includes several couches with accents of red, orange, purple and gold, most notably on the oversized throw pillows. an ornately woven blanket from egypt that hangs in a hallway is reproduced

in a painting in this room. a tV screen comes down from the ceiling and retracts when not in use. a wet bar connects the great room to the kitchen just around the corner.

speaking of the kitchen, her green and terra cotta space, as expected, is much like her: whimsical yet practical, beautiful with an aura of provenance. Giant, oversized utensils perch on the walls above her stove, while several large carved wooden roosters from africa hold court in the middle of the room. Olive-colored granite covers the countertops.

nearby, the formal dining room is filled with heirlooms, including a vast collection of tiffany crystal as well as silver serving pieces.

Down the hall, French doors lead to her office, a cool sanctuary featuring an Indian painting and red bronze sconces reminiscent of tribal masks. the master suite includes a three-sided fireplace, dressing room and sitting area that opens to the expansive back yard. White and silver sparkle in the guest room, where a carved screen serves as a head board.

Master bedroom amenities include a three-sided fireplace.

Three fireplaces, including one in the

dining room, right, and another in the living room, below,

add a warm ambiance throughout the home. Also, most

of the oak flooring dates to when the

residence was built, in 1911-12.


From the foot-wide walls and push-button light switches to the pocket doors and boxed beams and cornices, time has been kind to this century-old Craftsman bungalow-style mansion,

which sits atop a hill near Prospect Park.Built in 1911-12 by a. hadley and william

Burniss, the stately gray-shingled home is 4,800 square feet and opens into a nearly 9-foot-wide foyer. its rich interior meanders through four bedrooms, three bathrooms, a living room, formal dining room, kitchen and family room. most of the oak flooring is original, as are nearly all the window panes and a stunning leaded-glass piece in the stairwell. the toilets date from the late 1930s.

the home is outfitted with three fireplaces, one of which is made from the irregular-shaped clinker bricks. (trash chutes from the fireplaces were apparently rarely cleaned and the current homeowners have unearthed intact paperwork dating back 100 years in the chutes’ ash dump.)

Craftsman-style built-in cabinetry graces one wall of the spacious dining room, where intricate gold and green stenciling surrounds the entire room above the doorway.

downstairs a former breakfast room is now a small bedroom, while upstairs a sleeping porch connects two bedrooms. the second floor also features a large family/tV room and master bedroom.

the front terrace looks out toward the park; the side entry includes a long sloping driveway and carriage porch, underscoring the home’s lasting link to history.

“On Thanksgiving and the holidays that

follow, we cook more, and push every

appliance to the limit,” said Mark

Caubarreaux, a senior technical instructor

for Sears, where he has worked as a

technician for 29 years. “If there’s a

problem, it will surface just when you need

the appliance the most.”

Sounds like he’s been to my house.

Though I am a lifetime member of the If

It’s Not Broken Don’t Fix It Club, I would

be remiss in my duties as a home columnist

if I didn’t recommend you do a little

proactive pre-check. It just might keep the

oven from combusting with the bird inside,

or the refrigerator from turning warm and

spawning salmonella.

Thanksgiving and the days after are the

busiest time of year for appliance

repairmen, said Caubarreaux. “Most

common are calls about broken stoves,

followed by refrigerators. The dishwasher

is a close third.”

You name the holiday home meltdown,

Caubarreaux has seen it, including the time

some home chef decided to run her oven’s

self-clean cycle on Thanksgiving morning,

forgetting that she’d been storing cooking

oil in the oven. The oversight invited the

Fire Department in for the holiday.

The moral, said Caubarreaux: “Don’t ever

use your oven as storage for anything.”

or, if they’re not, have enough time to repair

or replace them. To get your appliances

ready for prime time, Caubarreaux offers

these tips:

First, read the owner’s manuals. Please.

“Many consumers could spare themselves

a call to the repairman if they would read

their appliance manuals for tips on proper

cleaning and maintenance before diving in,”

said Caubarreaux. If you don’t have your

manual (who does?), find it online by

searching the brand and model number

of your appliance.

Prepare your ovenThe oven takes center stage on

Thanksgiving. Everyone looks in. Knowing

this, home chefs are often tempted to run

the self-clean cycle the day before. Don’t.

The self-cleaning function requires the oven

to get very hot, and can actually trigger a

breakdown, putting you and your oven right

over the edge. Plus, if you have serious old

food in your oven, the task can fill your

house with odors that linger long after the

turkey is cooking. Run the clean cycle two

or three weeks beforehand, said

Caubarreaux, who recommends running the

cycle on a routine basis, before the grime

really builds.

Check your burnersIf you’re like me, your front two burners

do all the work 11 months of the year. Then

the holidays hit; suddenly you need four,

and the back ones have gone dark. To make

sure you’re cooking on all burners, clean

cooking spills right away, and check that

burners still light after each cleaning.

Sometimes cleaning can cause burners

Photo courtesy of searsMake a list and check it twice. Now, before the big cooking season hits the homestead, is the time to make sure all systems in the kitchen are holiday ready advises sears, whose 7,000 service technicians make more than 14 million house calls a annually — most during the last two months of the year.

to stop working, so go gently taking care not

to knock pilots out of whack, and keep

soapy water from clogging small openings.

For stubborn dirt on burner grates and oven

racks, spray with oven cleaner and place

them in a plastic bag. Tie the bag end, and

let the grates sit overnight. Wash with soap

and water.

Clean the range hoodThese get filthy with grease, and if they

get too plugged they won’t function. If clean

air interests you, remove and clean filters in

the sink, or, if your range uses charcoal

filters, replace them.

Clean the fridgeInside and out. Yes, all eyes also will be

in your refrigerator, which you should wipe

down, and clear of old food to make room

for new dishes and leftovers. A common

mistake Caubarreaux sees is home chefs

overfilling the fridge so cold airflow gets

blocked, or the door won’t close. Beyond

surface cleaning, go deeper and give your

coils a once-over. These coils, located on the

bottom, back or top of the refrigerator, often

get covered with dirt making the appliance

work harder. To make sure your fridge keeps

its cool, unplug it, then use a vacuum with

the brush attachment to carefully clean

them.

Refresh your iceOld ice, which collects at the bottom

of the ice bin, can leave a bad taste in your

drink. Toss out all the ice and make room

for a fresh batch. Do this a few days before

guests come to make sure the maker has

enough time to completely refill the bin.

Wash the dishwasherThe dishwasher is another appliance that

gets put through the ringer as holiday house

guests fill homes — and dishwashers. To

make sure dishwashers look good and work

well, clean the filters, under the lower rack.

Then run the dishwasher empty except for

a cup of vinegar on the top shelf. This will

cut water spots and other buildup.

Nuke the microwaveIf your microwave smells like an old

hotdog cart, or is sporting wallpaper of

cooked-on food, put a microwave-safe cup

full of water with a shot of liquid detergent

in the oven and run it on high a couple

minutes. Let the steam stand inside to soften

buildup, then wipe clean with a soft cloth.

Replace worn out appliancesIf your kitchen appliances have reached

the end of their useful life — most last

between 10 and 15 years — replace them

a few weeks before they will go into full

swing. This lets you break them in, and they

you. If you choose an energy-efficient

replacement, you may still get the tax credit.

music | holiday tunes

By GeorGe A. PAul

Catching a concert

in December is often more

memorable than other times of

year because there’s the chance

that a few holiday tunes will be slipped into

the set. We asked local musicians which

songs they tend to perform — if any — live

during this period.

What is your philosophy on doing Yuletide selections?

Johnny HickmanCracker

“We have fans from several faiths and

probably plenty who are not religious at all,

so we tend to stay away from secular-based

music. We do, however, have a rather

darkly funny original song called

‘Merry christmas emily’ [off

2002’s ‘Forever’]. We had

a very old school manager

at one point who said,

‘You guys oughta write

a christmas song!’

“almost as a joke, we

wrote this song sung

from the point of view

of a loser guy pining for

his lost love. as the

song progresses, it’s

loosely revealed that

‘emily’ is Jewish and he’s

not, but that’s barely a

subtext for why they split up.

Melodically, we make subtle hints

at both ‘hava nagila’ and ‘god rest

Ye Merry gentlemen’ in the song.

Fans always urge us to play the

song during our annual holiday

season tour.”

Chris ThayerBig Papa & The TCB, Big Papa Trio, Chris Thayer Band

“i have a few of my own holiday songs,

actually, and it gives me a chance to change

things up.”

Drew ShirleySwitchfoot

“We always like to carry along a little of

the christmas spirit, so we usually will add

a song just for fun. We don’t play very many

christmas songs in our band — not because

we don’t like them, it’s just we have a lot of

original music and tend to focus on that.”

Matt ColemanColeSlaw, Hobo Jazz

“indeed we do add christmas tunes to the

set. We are known to throw in a christmas

song in the middle of summer for fun too.”

Which songs have you done? Shirley: “We wrote a song called

‘evergreen.’ Sometimes, we

will work up an

arrangement of that one.

it’s new to most people

because it’s pretty deep in

our catalog. What’s crazy

is that we have nine

albums and only one

christmas song.”

Thayer: originals: “all

i Want for Xmas (is

Love)” and “christmas

Blues.” covers: “Back

Door Santa,” “run, run

rudolph,” “Merry

christmas, Baby,”

“rudolph the red-nosed

reindeer,” “Santa claus is

coming to town,” “White

christmas.”

Coleman: “the

christmas Song,” a

“Winter Wonderland/

Santa claus is coming to

town” medley, “nuttin’

Seasonal setlists

It’s beginning to sound at least a little like

Christmas when local musicians perform this

time of year

for Christmas,” “Have Yourself a Merry Little

Christmas.” Also, an original called

“Christmas in California.”

Any favorite(s) to perform live?Shirley: “ ‘Feliz Navidad.’ It always gets

a good reaction from the crowd and gives

[singer] Jon [Foreman] a chance to brush up

on his Spanish.”

Thayer: “The more swingin,’ rockin’ stuff.”

Coleman: “I love Christmas music,

so as far as favorites, it is hard to say.

ColeSlaw put out a Christmas album called

‘Simply Havin’.’”

Do you tend to change up the song arrangements or do them the traditional way?

Shirley: “We always change up the

arrangements to fit our live sound. Even

on our own songs, we find that sometimes

we need to change the arrangement from the

record to fit the live setting. I think every

band does that unless they are using tracks,

which we don’t.”

Thayer: “We absolutely change the

arrangements — almost without exception.

I really don’t see the point of playing most

songs unless you make them fit your own

style. Otherwise, you may as well just put

on your iPod and play that for the crowd.”

Coleman: “Definitely. I am not known

for playing things straight up.”

Do you ever get audience requests for Christmas songs and play them on the spot?

Shirley: “It’s rare that we get requests for

Christmas songs but, hey, if you’re at a show

sometime [during the season], yell one out,

because our live show is just that — live.

We really never know what Jon is going to

do, but we are ready to follow.”

Thayer: “Not a lot of requests for

traditional Christmas songs. We do

occasionally get requests for our original

Christmas songs, though. … Honestly, it’s

harder to do the covers with the full band.

For the originals, we have arrangements, but

the covers would be more work. It’s just not

worth it for something you play three or four

times a year. But the quartet and trio

[formats of Big Papa & TCB] and solo are

a slam dunk.”

Coleman: “We get requests for all kinds

of songs and during the season we are

normally asked for a tune or two. We do our

best to do them on the spot. I’m sure we

have been stumped along the way, but if we

can swing it, we will try.”

Need a fresh and soulful

soundtrack for your

Christmas festivities? Then

“It’s a Holiday Soul Party,”

the first seasonal album from Sharon

Jones & the dap-Kings on daptone

Records, is a solid choice.

Riverside native and band member

Gabriel Roth (aka Bosco Mann) played

bass, produced, engineered and mixed

it at his Penrose Recorders studio

downtown. Jones and the dap-Kings

recently made their inaugural local live

appearance at the Riverside Municipal

Auditorium and gave back to the

community by hosting a music workshop

for young students beforehand.

Although Roth lives here with his

family, the 11-piece group is still based in

Brooklyn, where they’ve been putting out

Cds since the early 2000s. A double

Grammy Award winner for production/

engineering work on Amy Winehouse’s

“Back to Black” and Booker T. Jones’ “The

Road from Memphis,” Roth and the group

received their first nomination together for

2014’s “Give the People What They Want.”

Throughout “It’s a Holiday Soul Party,”

the musicians delve into vintage R&B,

funk sounds and beyond with stellar

results.

Half of the holiday selections are

originals. Lead singer Jones and Roth

co-penned the childhood recollection

lyrics of “Ain’t No Chimneys in the

Projects.” The previously released tune is

set to sweeping violins by the Bushwick

Philharmonic and bolstered by punchy

dap-Kings horn lines that recall early

Marvin Gaye.

“When we tell stories in songs, they’re

always true and real,” noted Roth. Photo by JAcob blickeNstAff

sharon Jones & the Dap-kings

Let’s get this holiday ‘Party’ started


Drummer Homer Steinweiss contributed

the groove-laden “Just Another Christmas

Song,” which seamlessly incorporates

classic song titles. Guitarist Binky Griptite

offered up and handled vocals on “World

of Love.”

There’s even a treat for Jewish listeners

— the upbeat “8 Days (of Hanukkah),” in

which Jones sings about dreidels, frying

latkes and cooking up brisket as the

backing singers count everything down.

The jaunty “Big Bulbs” boasts a finger-

snapping gypsy vibe and gives Jones,

Saundra Williams and Starr Duncan Lowe’s

smooth harmonies a chance to shine.

The frontwoman’s powerful style “is

really something that’s happening from

her heart,” said Roth. “It’s like somebody

testifying in church.”

Elsewhere, Jones and company deftly

channel the old Ike & Tina Turner revue

during their racing take on “White

Christmas,” the lead singer does some

impressive belting out amid a laid back,

blues groove arrangement of “Silent Night”

and the gleeful “Silver Bells” has classic

1960s girl group-style backing.

All told, this is a “Party” worth attending.

Thank you for 33 music-filled years

REDLANDS SYMPHONYJAN. 23 – Benjamin Wallfisch conducts a program that includes works by Ralph Williams (“Fantasia on a Theme”), Stravinsky (Pulcinella Suite) and Tchaikovsky (Symphony No. 4 in F minor, op. 36). Memorial Chapel, University of Redlands, 1200 E. Colton Ave.; 8 p.m.; 909-748-8018; www.redlandssymphony.com. Also: Robertson conducts Elgar, Feb. 13; Hunt conducts Mozart and Brahms, March 12; An Afternoon with Angel Blue, April 10; Farewell to Maestro Robertson, April 16.

By MICHEL NOLAN

An entire community will write a “thank you”

note from its heart as it bids farewell to its

extraordinary man of music during this concert

season.

Jon robertson, who has spent 33 years at the helm of the

redlands Symphony, has announced his final performances

conducting the symphony. His poignant farewell concert dates

are set for Feb. 13 and April 16.

it’s a time for reflection, the maestro said.

“this may be my swan song but it’s all good,” he said from his

home in Highland Beach, Fla.

music is in robertson’s DnA, and as much as he will miss

redlands, redlands will miss its beloved conductor and music

director.

“there were just very special, wonderful moments when the

players were transfixed — i can’t explain it, but everyone

recognized it and it was magical,” robertson said of the

symphony. “the audience fell in love with the orchestra.”

He’s going to lock those moments away in his memories of life.

two of the things he treasures the most: the growth of the

orchestra and the ongoing support of the redlands community

for the orchestra.

“the depth of support that transcended the audience and the

pride that made its way into the fibers of the community has

been very special,” the 72-year-old maestro said.

it’s fair to say that sentiment is reciprocal.

Ann Bryan, past president and member of the redlands

Symphony Board, is a longtime friend and classical music lover.

“not only is the maestro a child prodigy and a Juilliard-trained

concert pianist, he is a fine human being with a great sense of

humor. He couldn’t have done more to increase the quality of the

orchestra. He’s a darling guy,” she said.

this brilliant man of music has left a legacy of passion for the

extraordinary art form that is music. the community of redlands

is the beneficiary of maestro robertson’s commitment to

excellence.
