    Columbus lucky to have Jazz Orchestra--world class

    by Mubkitty on 12/8/09Southern Theatre - Columbus

    What a wonderful Christmas concert - by Columbus' own Columbus Jazz Orchestra. World class talent! Byron is a remarkable leader, singer, trumpeter. Helen Welch, the soloist was great, as were ALL of the members of the band - Bobby Floyd, Michael Cox, et al. This has just joined our MUST SEE events list! And need I say anything about the beauty of the Southern Theater. A classic jewel!

    Excellent show. Great songs, singing, and musicians contributed to very nice holiday event. Helen Welch sings like an angel transported from the golden age of swing.

    sensational

    by robocop46 on 12/7/09Southern Theatre - Columbus

    Once again, the Jazz orchestra outdid itself. I took my wife and 2 daughters and every one of us talked about how pleasurable and entertaining the concert was. Without a doubt it was money and time well spent. Keep it up!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Columbus Jazz - Incredible

    by Bagherra on 12/6/09Southern Theatre - Columbus

    I loved the concert and Helen was so sophisticated and charming! Leave the dancers off next time. They were a little shocking and actually cheapened the experience.

    Columbus Jazz Orchestra--better than expected!

    by ColumbusCouple on 12/4/09Southern Theatre - Columbus

    Upon arrival my husband and I were nervous for the performance because we were the youngest audience members by far! I was afraid we had walked into a Lawrence Welk production---nothing wrong with LW but not exactly our style. The second the music started -however- we were just blown away. The quality of musicianship, the excellent hosts...wow. We laughed and sang and just had a wonderful time. We'll do it again next year. The CJO is a hidden gem of Columbus---I had no idea!

    Col. Youth Jazz Orch. & Col. Jazz Orch. awesome

    by MrsBean on 11/2/09Southern Theatre - Columbus

    I brought my 90 year old father with dementia to hear both the Columbus Youth Jazz Orchestra and the Columbus Jazz Orchestra play. Under the direction of Todd Stohl, it was unbelievable to me that high school students could perform Duke Ellington that well. It was super enjoyable. Then we were treated to the Columbus Jazz Orchestra doing Duke Ellington music. I haven't seen my father more alive and happy in a long time. Excellent music can really soothe the soul and raise you to a place of joy. The sounds were out of sight. You're missing out on a great treat in Columbus if you haven't heard these guys!!!!

    First time hearing the Columbus Jazz Orchestra in years. It was one of the best entertained evenings with great musical talents. Left the theatre with a smile on my heart.

    Earl Klugh-Columbus Jazz Orchestra

    by Patsy11 on 9/27/09Southern Theatre - Columbus

    The evening of jazz was very enjoyable except for the three women next to us who screamed loudly during and after each song. Ultimately, we had to move our seats because they distracted our enjoyment of the concert. It was a delight to see Earl Klugh live after listening to his music for 20 years.

    Return Engagement

    by Southerner on 7/17/09Southern Theatre - Columbus

    Until we moved to a warmer climate three years ago, we had been members for over 10 years. We returned for an OSU graduation, and were greatly pleased to be able to attend a JAG concert. We thoroughly enjoyed the concert. But the big thrill was hearing the band again. I can go to jazz clubs where I now live and hear good musicians in small groups. But for me, it is not the same as hearing an outstanding big band like the Jazz Arts Group

    She sure is sophisticated!

    by Lexdance on 7/13/09Southern Theatre - Columbus

    The Leslie Uggams concert was one of the best I've seen in Columbus. Ms. Uggams is one of the rare performers who does everything with a touch of class. Her singing voice is beautiful and so is she. Her song selections were classic. The orchestra was incredible and it was truly a memorable evening.

    Uggams Vocal Prowess Still Amazes

    by kpdepk on 7/11/09Southern Theatre - Columbus

    The incredible Leslie Uggams took the Southern Theater stage with the Columbus Jazz Orchestra for an incredible night of song and magic. Ms. Uggams looking fit and in fine voice took the audience through the golden days of jazz and r &b, including a look at the Apollo Theater in it's heyday of the 40s and 50s. Another fine performance from the Columbus Jazz Orchestra, and with Leslie Uggams, it was a night to remember!

    Leslie still swings

    by Sady on 7/11/09Southern Theatre - Columbus

    The Columbus Jazz Orchestra with Leslie Uggams put on a performance I will never forget. The music before Leslie came on stage was fresh and the orchestra leader and members were very entertaining. I was wondering if Leslie would be as good as I remembered her and found her to be just as strong voiced and personable as ever. If she ever comes back to Columbus, I will definitely attend.
