The Early Days of the Pops ...... |
|
The Bemus Bay Pops is a series of outdoor concert
events of historic proportions, featuring world-class
musicians from the Chautauqua Region as well as
national acts featured on our Floating Stage on the
splendid Chautauqua Lake . Every weekend all
summer long we provide a variety of entertainment
such as music concerts including classical, swing,
jazz, Country and modern. During the weekdays
throughout the summer we have events like the
Lake Night at the Movies, hilarious comedy troupes,
and so much more! |

A creation of Dan and Sue Dalpra, owners of the
Italian Fisherman Restaurant in Bemus Point, NY.
They wanted to celebrate Labor Day by having the
Bemus Bay Pops Orchestra perform a concert on
the roof of the Italian Fisherman.
|
|
In 1998, the inaugural year of the event, they had great
success as they attracted an estimated 4,000 people
who gathered for the concert on the lawns, decks and
water of the Bemus Bay.
The Pops performed a wonderfully diverse program
featuring works from Gershwin, Strauss, Sousa and
The Beatles. |
|
In 2003 the summer concert season was expanded
and instead of just one major concert which took place
on Labor Day, the Bemus Bay Pops summer concert
series extended to concert performances Saturdays
and Sundays with the new addition of the Floating
Stage concert venue.
