WE HOPE TO SEE YOU ALL SOON!

Lots of stuff happening - GREAT NEWS!!

SECOND (should be first!) - 2 NEW CD RELEASES!! Available by Feb. 19...

"THE HOUSE JAZZ CONCERT SERIES, VOLS. 1 AND 2" Check out the pics above.

There was so much music recorded last year. Some was great, and some was not so great, but there was definitely lots of energy, creativity and enthusiasm in the performances, thanks to you and you and you and...

There will be more CD releases coming up later, too. Volumes 1 and 2 just barely scratch the surface of all the great music done!

THIRD - Dave will be featured with the Columbus Jazz Orchestra in a tribute to Ella Fitzgerald and Louis Armstrong on Feb. 24 thru the 28th at the Southern Theatre.

Rebecca Ogden's Next Bungalow Jazz House Concert Features Mark Flugge Trio

 

Mark Flugge and Becky Ogden

Becky's House Jazz concerts have become legendary. Her home is always open to jazz musicians and her tradition of organizing or inviting spontaneous music concerts, first at the former Columbus Music Hall which she owned, and lately at her own private home, (the bungalow) has led to this series of home concerts that previously featured Terry Waldo and will showcase some of Columbus most admired Jazz musicians.  Becky is also the inventor and leader of Peanut Butter and Jazz, a series of concerts dedicated to young children with the direct intention of teaching them to love and become our next generation of fans of Jazz, America's most wonderful contribution to world culture. Check ou the info below. -charlie

Peanut Butter & Jazz

Seaun Carney Blues band, with special guest Gene "King Saxe" Walker, played for an hour at the Peanut Butter and Jazz (PB&J) concert at the Lincoln Theatre earlier this morning. To the delight of all kids and parents present, the band played tunes including Oreo Cookie Blues and Chewing Gum Blues.

In the photo above, the group and audience digging the scene. Below that, Cordy, sitting next to her bubbe and obviously enjoying it, is a veteran of more than three years at these PB&J concerts, while Mira, very relaxed,  sleeps on bubbe's lap. 

Kids get treated to a peanut-butter sandwich, chocolate chip cookies and orange juice while they listen to some of Columbus' best blues and jazz musicians. This program, originated by Becky Ogden several years ago, brings kids and parents together for an activity all enjoy. The goal is to educate a younger audience to the rich heritage of Blues and Jazz. The place was packed to the gills. Kids and adults had a great time!

Next one is on Valentine's Day (Feb. 14) Music starts at 11 sharp. Come early to get a a good seat and goodies.
