Kreskin, Jazz and a 5K in Easton This Weekend

On his new album, jazz pianist Dave Leonhardt takes songs like Elvis' "Hound Dog" and Simon and Garfunkel's "Sounds of Silence" and turns them into jazz recordings.

You can hear selections from that album—also called Sounds of Silence—Friday night during the Easton Main Street Initiative's Live in the Square concert.

Leonhardt, an Easton native, will perform with a trio, playing songs from his new album as well as some of his original work. The show begins at 7:30 p.m.
