The Melody Men
Greenwich RMA Melody Men Celebrate 50 years with Public Performance
The Melody Men of the Retired Men's Association of Greenwich have been bringing smiles, laughs and joy-filled singing to Greenwich for 50 years and will celebrate their 50th anniversary year on June 4 at 11 a.m. in the Parish Hall of Christ Church. Everyone is invited for the hour long performance.
The group made its first public appearance at the RMA Thanksgiving luncheon in 1975, and has been the choral community outreach group of the RMA ever since. It currently schedules about 25 one hour performances each year, during the Spring and Fall seasons, to appreciative senior audiences throughout Fairfield and Westchester Counties. The program includes pop, country, folk, and Broadway show tunes.
Some of the venues are Greenwich Woods, River House, Hill House, The Mews, Nathaniel Witherell, Atria Senior Living in Rye Brook NY, Briarcliff Manor NY, Darien, Stanford, Woodlands - Ardsley NY, Broadview at Purchase NY, Edgehill and Waterstone - Stamford. The Melody Men have also sung the National Anthem at CitiField before two NY Mets games, and annually at the Greenwich Old Timers Dinner. They perform God Bless America annually at the Greenwich Town Party, and the 9/11 Memorial Service at Cos Cob Park.
Tom Healy is the current music director and Bob Morgan is the arranger/ piano accompanist, ably assisted by Tony Cocchi and Joe Mancinelli. Current performers are Michael Ambrosino, Charlie Adams, Jim Butler, Tony Cocchi, Don Conway, Jim Dean, Anders Ekernas, Bill Fakundiny, Mike Hayden, Tom Healy, Bill Howland, Peter Junius, Jeff Junker, Doug MacLaury, Joe Mancinelli, Bob Morgan, Bill McKiegan, Bob Phillips, Jerry Schwendeman, and Horst Tebbe.
