  • Enjoyed concert!

    by Chilly on 4/30/19Southern Theatre - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5

    We hadn't been to a CJO concert at the southern theatre for a couple years. So glad we were able to make this one. Loved the guest singing artists. As always, the musicians were fabulous!

  • Had a great time!

    by Viv27 on 3/23/19Southern Theatre - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5

    The event was very well organized in a very beautiful theater and the staff was friendly and helpful. The Columbus Jazz Orchestra is unmissable, so we are looking forward to their next events. Omar Coleman, Joel Frahm and Bobby Floyd are outstanding musicians. I highly recommend events like this one.

  • Nothin But the Blues

    by M. S. on 3/20/19Southern Theatre - ColumbusRating: 4 out of 5

    While I thoroughly enjoyed the show, I was a bit disappointed that Omar Coleman and Joel Frahm didn't perform together!

  • Fantastic!

    by Redgen on 3/20/19Southern Theatre - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5

    Omar Coleman & Joel Frahm were excellent guests!! SO talented! And, of course, the Columbus Jazz Orchestra is ALWAYS fantastic!! Especially love Bobby Floyd's superb talent on organ and piano.

  • Great Entertainment

    We’re music fans who want to see the top musicians and an exuberant band leader. There they are.

  • Columbus Jazz Orchestra Valentine Concert

    by Erie Audit on 2/20/19Southern Theatre - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5

    Outstanding. I don't know why it took us so long to take in one of their concerts. I can assure you that it won't be that long before the next. It was in the Southern Theater, which made it seem like an intimate time with the group. Musically, they're top notch.

  • Great players; superb vocalists; wonderful venue!

    by Jim Dyer on 2/19/19Southern Theatre - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5

    Byron Stripling, Benny Benack III and Lena Seikaly fronted an extraordinary Jazz orchestra with the incomparable Bobby Floyd at the piano and not a single wallflower in the ensemble. Wonderful horns, soulful saxophones, butter-smooth trombones plus Bob Breithaupt’s mastery on drums and Chris Berg’s sensitive string bass. The performances were impeccable and some of the arrangements stretched a very familiar songbook into places Nat would have been proud to be. I thoroughly enjoyed my first experience with The Columbus Jazz Orchestra and expect to become a regular wherever i can hear them play! Bravo!

  • Awesome!

    by Rachel on 2/19/19Southern Theatre - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5

    Venue was gorgeous, musicians were extremely talented, and set list was wonderful! I’m usually difficult to please, but I have no complaints.

  • Great Show

    by CG__ on 2/18/19Southern Theatre - ColumbusRating: 4 out of 5

    CJO was excellent; the guest artists were as well even though they didnt cover as many of my Nat King Cole favorites as i would have liked. I look forward to future shows, as well as more from the deep well of talent yhat is Byron Stripling!

  • Wow!!

    by WCL on 2/18/19Southern Theatre - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5

    As is always the case, the Columbus Jazz Orchestra came aging through once again. The group of talented musicians, regardless of guest artist performing with them, delights every time they take the stage of the Great Southern Theatre. Just a fantastic evening of entertainment!!

    Wonderful family experience and for music fans. Enjoyable

  • Columbus Jazz Orchestra rocking good time

    by KJT1 on 5/4/18Southern Theatre - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5

    Bryon Stripling hit it out of the park and Nichole Henry and Big Mike were amazing!

  • Rhythm and Blues Salute

    by Teach57 on 5/2/18Southern Theatre - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5

    The show was amazing, from the Youth Jazz Band to the singers Nicole Henry and Michael Lynche.

  • More vocals than I would have liked...

    by Davita on 5/2/18Southern Theatre - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5

    I love the CJO. However, the vocals were more of the program than I would have liked. Big Mike was great. I was not so taken with Nicole Henry. And, Byron Stripling didn't play a note, that I remember. Brass otherwise was brilliant! Bobby Floyd was superb, as always. Percussion players besides Floyd were excellent. Will be back next year, though, without a doubt!

  • Columbus Jazz Orchestra = Wonderful!

    by Pongji on 5/1/18Southern Theatre - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5

    CJO's "Legends of Rhythm & Blues" show was extremely enjoyable. The musicians were in top form, and Byron Stripling was entertaining and charismatic as always. The addition of Nicole Henry and Michael Lynche on vocals was a perfect touch. As a lover of classic soul and R&B, I loved the song selections, but couldn't help thinking of so many others I'd like to hear (perhaps in a follow-up show next year?). However, the inclusion of a brand new Michael Lynche original among songs by the Immortal Legends seemed a bit of an odd choice. In any case, I thoroughly enjoyed the concert, and look forward to more from the Columbus Jazz Orchestra. Thanks for a wonderful evening!

  • Jazz Night was awesome!

    by CarlaLenn on 5/1/18Southern Theatre - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5

    We loved this show, we are from the greater Cincy area so this was the first time we have been a part of this wonderful band. The band is so talented each and every one of the members, we loved the singers but we would have enjoyed it without them.

  • One Mo Time - a big hit

    by DebDK on 4/6/18Southern Theatre - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5

    Really enjoyed seeing the orchestra performing "One Mo Time" . This was our first time to hear the Columbus Jazz Orchestra and don't think it will be the last. Seeing the youth perform before the concert was an added plus. Very talented

  • Spectacular Jazz

    by Teach57 on 3/21/18Southern Theatre - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5

    We really enjoyed the music of New Orleans performed by Columbus Jazz Orchestra. The special treat was hearing the Yourh Jazz Group perform.

  • Great show!

    by Becca0110 on 3/21/18Southern Theatre - ColumbusRating: 5 out of 5

    Not our usual type of show, but so glad we stepped outside of the box! The talent & skill of the Columbus Jazz Orchestra was a joy to see & hear. The Southern Theatre is a beautiful venue; the acoustics & view are outstanding in the 2nd balcony. We have tickets for another show next month, can’t wait!

  • Jazz in Columbus

    We had a wonderful time. The lead singer and conductor was outstanding. The second half of the show was true New Orleans Jazz.
