FASCINATING RHYTHM: EJO Meets ESO

In a ground-breaking event closing out the Festival, The Edmonton Jazz Orchestra, Edmonton’s premiere professional big band, will share the stage with members of the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra at the Winspear Centre.

This Sunday afternoon matinee concert will feature some of Edmonton’s best jazz and classical artists and Edmonton’s finest aspiring young jazz musicians, playing arrangements of well-known tunes that festivalgoers and music-lovers have come to love and enjoy, including songs made famous by George Gershwin, Duke Ellington, Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra plus many more.

This one-of-a-kind concert experience will highlight the rich talent and spirit of collaboration that is thriving in the Edmonton’s arts community, celebrating an all-Edmonton lineup of musicians.

For only $5, kids ages 3-12 get to experience the concert along with Jazz for Kids, an interactive, engaging, educational performance in the Winspear lobby, one hour prior to the show.
