BRASILIA PLAYS JOBIM

OUR FIRST EVENT SINCE COVID!!!

JAZZ AT THE MEMO PRESENTS BRASILIA PLAYS JOBIM

Brasilia is a Cincinnati based band that fuses the improvisational influences of American jazz with the wide pallet of Brazilian musical styles, featuring an all CCM Jazz faculty lineup. For this concert they feature the music of Brazil’s most internationally celebrated composer, Antonio Carlos Jobim.

Featuring Phil DeGreg (piano), Kim Pensyl (trumpet), Rusty Burge (vibraphone), Aaron Jacobs (bass) and John Taylor (drums).

Jazz at the Memo swings safely into 2021 with a new season and a much, much bigger room. Winter welcomes the popular music series ascended into the gorgeous, acoustically superb 556-seat Anderson Theater, allowing for up to 139 casual fans and jazz aficionados alike. Complimentary wine tastings for all Jazz at the Memo performances will be provided by Revel OTR Urban Winery.

 

Enjoy the finest of Cincinnati’s thriving jazz scene, including some of the city’s preeminent female and BIPOC artists.

Memorial Hall is committed to keeping patrons and performers safe through the following measures:

  • 6’ social distancing between all parties

  • Masks required for patrons at all times

  • Hourly disinfecting of “high-touch” surfaces throughout the building

  • Placement of hand sanitizing stations throughout the building

  • Utilizing safer steam heat to warm the building

  • Constant cycling of fresh air into the building via our Dedicated Outdoor Air System.

Whereas a more casual environment was possible in pre-COVID times, seating will now be assigned in the Anderson Theater. Accordingly, we recommend that patrons pre-order their tickets. Doors and house open at 6:30pm.
