About 100 tickets were sold through Friday, Aug. 22. There are about 300 additional tickets available.

Advance tickets are available at the DORA office at 152 Market St. in downtown Orangeburg.

The Jarvis Brothers are widely known for their four- and five-part Jubliee-style harmony, much of it steeped in the traditional gospel spiritual genre that took root and thrived in the deep South.

The performance promises traditional fare with some new material thrown in the mix.

The original band of brothers — Ulysses, Reginald, Anthony, Donald and Rogers — performed together for more than 35 years until Reginald’s death in March 2007. However, out of that family loss came the addition to the group 15 months ago of Reginald’s nephew, Cornell.

The group won the Elizabeth O’Neill Verner Governor’s Award for the Arts in 2005 and has performed in the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C., and the Apollo Theater in New York.
