VERO BEACH — On Valentine’s day, Feb. 14, The Emerson Center will host pianist Bob Milne for a special concert entitled “Ragtime, Romance, and Roses” beginning at 7 p.m. The performance promises a wonderful blend of spirited ragtime and boogie-woogie tunes (for which Milne’s has earned international recognition) along with many of the classic love tunes which so many people enjoy.
As an added bonus, the first 200 couples (or unaccompanied ladies) who get tickets will receive a complimentary red rose, furnished by Monti’s Flower Market in Vero Beach.
Milne is a veteran performer, having toured the world playing before Presidents and heads of state. He has been dubbed a “national treasure” by the Librarian of Congress.
For this concert, Milne invites his guests to “grab somebody’s hand and give it a squeeze.”
“We will have no shortage of fun at this Valentine’s concert,” he added.
