"It is pure joy to be in the audience with the sounds of the Jazz Orchestra and the moves of the BalletMet dancers"

Thrill to the sight of the BalletMet dancers as each kick, turn and leap is articulated by the virtuosic sounds of the CJO. From gospel to Motown, jazz to classical ballet, Jazz Moves Columbus will commemorate the city's heritage with two of its artistic treasures. The original Jazz Moves won the Greater Columbus Arts Council's Artistic Excellence Award and was called "groundbreaking" by the Columbus Dispatch. In collaboration with WOSU Public Media's "Columbus Neighborhoods" series, BalletMet and the Jazz Arts Group celebrate life in Columbus through a synthesis of music, movement and imagery. Experience the multi-arts event 200 years in the making!
