Fridays on Prouty Concert with Blue Wisp Big Band

Founded in 1980, this legendary sixteen-piece American jazz ensemble takes its inspiration from one of Ohio’s premiere nightclubs, the Blue Wisp Jazz Club, where they often performed. Though the club has closed, the band keeps its legacy of style alive and well. Their sound is big, powerful, smooth and well-grounded in a rich history. With five saxophones, four trumpets, four trombones and a solid three-piece rhythm section, you will meet some of Ohio’s finest musicians who promise to fill the downtown square with that particular sweet spot that only the BWBB can hit.
