Jeff Hamilton with Vaughn Wiester’s “Famous Jazz Orchestra”

Vaughn Wiester’s “Famous Jazz Orchestra” is made up of 21 very talented professional musicians that have come together every Monday evening on a semi-informal basis for the last nineteen (19) years to share their love of  their music by “reading” the best Big Band Charts from the last 50 years. For us “big band” fans, this is an opportunity to hear the sounds of Woody Herman, Stan Kenton, Duke Ellington and all the great bands, without ever leaving Columbus.

Since the summer of 2011 they have been fortunate to have been hosted by The Clintonville Woman’s Club, 3951 North High Street, Columbus, Ohio 43214 (adjacent to Park of Roses)  every Monday night from 7:30 pm to 10 pm. Cost is just $10 for adults and $5 for students.
