The Performing Arts Department is excited to welcome Vaughn Wiester’s Famous Jazz Orchestra, comprised of 22 of central Ohio’s finest musicians who have come together every Monday evening on a semi-informal basis since 1997. They share their love of jazz, playing their favorite big band hits. Members of the orchestra have played with the orchestras of Glenn Miller, Guy Lombardo, Woody Herman, Mel Lewis, Tommy Dorsey, Ralph Marterie, Buddy Rich, and more! The director, Vaughn Wiester, is a former university jazz instructor, a jazz arranger, and a former trombonist with the Woody Herman orchestra. All selections will be announced from the stage. The concert will take place in Gray Chapel on Tuesday, Feb. 27, at 8 p.m. Admission is free! Hope to see you there!
