The sweet sounds of jazz circulate through the vespers of the Lincoln Theatre with liberation and frivolity. Imagine, on a backdrop of historic masonry, a quartet curated from the souls of performers past, and present, pay homage to the Savoy, The Cotton Club, The Lincoln. This barrage of musicality culminates in an intimate jazz requiem of exquisite programming united with excellent musicianship.
A combo helmed by trumpeter Miles Franklin Smith will offer two separate hour-long sets of distinctive jazz, full of songs that evoke the spirit and the roots of the genre, one at 5:30 pm and one at 7:30 pm. Smith will be joined by notable members of the Columbus jazz scene, including bassist George DeLancey, drummer Cedric Easton, and pianist Theron Brown. The title of the show is “Joy,” in keeping with the holiday season.
