🎷 Jazz revival

Hamilton County • March 24, 2025

​

Good morning, Hamilton County. The vibrant echoes of the Harlem Renaissance filled Cincinnati's concert halls as the Pops Orchestra transported audiences through time with Duke Ellington's jazz masterpieces and a world premiere honoring the African American "Hellfighters" who introduced jazz to Europe. The exuberant performances by pianist Marcus Roberts and vocalists Mykal Kilgore and Tatiana Mayfield served as powerful reminders that this cultural movement's impact continues to resonate a century later.

Meanwhile, as healthcare leaders from six regional medical systems gathered to tackle industry challenges, families across the region have something to celebrate with Cincinnati's Pogo Pass. This entertainment passport unlocks access to over 20 attractions—from Reds games to the Cincinnati Zoo—offering more than $700 in value for around $100. It's a budget-friendly ticket to year-round adventures throughout the Queen City and beyond.
