Portland Dixieland Jazz Society Performance


“The session with Columbia Classic Jazz Band was a terrific show. They presented an electrifying new sound with a wealth of first-rate vocals and their repertoire included an assortment of rarely played songs. No jam tunes for these guys. I will invite them to be with us next year.”

                                                Barry Benson, President  Portland Dixieland Jazz Society                   

 

Debut Performance A Sellout

 

Columbia Classic's May 31st debut performance was a sellout success! Tickets nearly sold out days before the performance with the few remaining tickets selling at the door. A huge thanks goes to the Al Kader Shrine Center and their crew for hosting the event.


CCJB presented two full sets without breaks to a very enthusiastic crowd of about 300 fans. The band was rewarded with a standing ovation at the end of the evening.

The music focused on traditional jazz, ranging from the Original Dixieland band's early 1900s numbers up to the Turl Murphy 1950s.

A large number of attendees signed up for the CCJB email list for future events.
