A reminder that tonight, under the direction of world-renowned band leader and trumpet virtuoso Byron Stripling, the Columbus Jazz Orchestra celebrates Jazz Appreciation Month in style with Cole & Cole at the Southern Theatre. Capping off the Jazz Arts Group’s 2009-2010 Swingin’ at the Southern season, Cole & Cole is a witty and sublime homage to Cole Porter and the “unforgettable” Nat “King” Cole with singer, movie actor and narrator Keith David.
Cole & Cole runs Wednesday, April 21 through Sunday, April 25 at the historic Southern Theatre. Visit www.jazzartsgroup.org for complete schedule and performance times. The Columbus Youth Jazz Orchestra (CYJO) is proud to perform prior to Sunday’s afternoon matinee at 1 PM.
