Event Description

Enjoy an afternoon of live jazz music while sampling artisanal craft beer and local urban wines at the beautiful Historic Grant Avenue.  Listen to Denver’s premier contemporary jazz band, the Metropolitan Jazz Orchestra, on Saturday, March 28th at 4:00pm after enjoying small batch beer and wine from Epic Brewing Company and The Infinite Monkey Theorem winery.

 

Specially priced flights of wine and beer will be sold for only $7 and $5 starting at 2:30pm.  Epic Brewing Company will have its award-winning Belgian-style Golden, Copper Cone Extra Strong Pale Ale, Hopulent IPA, and 825 Stout available by the flight or the glass.  The Infinite Monkey Theorem is a local winery operating out of a back alley in the RiNo Art District of Denver, and will be pouring a selection of their unique urban wines.

 

The Dessert Stand will also sell their Sweet Treat gourmet cupcakes and other tasty specialties before the performance.

 

After the wine and beer tastings, enjoy two sets of sizzling big band jazz and vocals by Metropolitan Jazz Orchestra.  This Denver band has a unique and exciting repertoire of classics, standards, and familiar tunes blended with a cutting edge urban vibe.  MJO features 20 of Denver's finest jazz musicians including vocals by Suzanne Morrison and Doug Barta.

 

During the performance, Eric Matelski (a.k.a. “The Art Pimp”) will create a painting of the band that will be auctioned off following the show.  Eric has made his place in the art community as a “live artist,” painting portraits of musicians and performers at hundreds of concerts and events, and completing paintings during a performance - and even in the time span of just one song. 

 

Tickets for “A Taste of Jazz” are only $15 for adults and $13 for students, seniors and military.  They are available at the door or on the Dates page at www.MetropolitanJazzOrchestra.com.  The Historic Grant Avenue is located at 216 South Grant Street Denver 80209.
