About this event
Jazz up your Tuesday nights at Winterhaus! Catch a different Jazz act each week up on The Johnson Foundation stage. The Lineup: Nov. 3 | Jazz Brooks Giles Quartet Nov. 10 | Ben Tweedt Trio Nov. 17 | Hank Stephens & Erwin Stuckey Nov. 24 | Gunnar Gidner Dec. 1 | Sophia Troyer Dec. 8 | Evan Gidley Trio Dec. 15 | Al West, Jr. Quartet Dec. 22 | Myles Twitty Dec. 29 | Chris Comer Trio
Who's playing
Each week brings a new group, and this run is made up mostly of trios and quartets. The Brooks Giles Quartet opens the series, followed by the Ben Tweedt Trio and a duo of Hank Stephens and Erwin Stuckey. Later weeks feature Gunnar Gidner, Sophia Troyer, the Evan Gidley Trio, Al West, Jr. Quartet, Myles Twitty and the Chris Comer Trio. Fountain Square regularly books local and regional jazz groups like these.
What to expect
The music happens on The Johnson Foundation stage inside Winterhaus, a 65-by-65-foot tent on the plaza. Winterhaus has a full bar and seasonal decor, and it also hosts daily events such as euchre nights and paint-and-sip classes. The room stays busy around the music, so it suits a relaxed evening more than a hushed listening room.
Why go
Winterhaus is a newer winter tradition on Fountain Square, and the weekly jazz is an easy way to see it. Each visit brings a different act, so regulars hear something new most weeks. It makes a simple start to an evening in the Fountain District, with live jazz, a drink and a warm seat in Downtown Cincinnati.
