ABOUT THE BAND

As an ever-evolving ensemble, OPUS 216 embarks on their third studio album in as many years on March 15 with an evening featuring French and South American jazz, original music, pop reimaginings, and (perhaps) a few surprises…

 

While the ensemble leans heavily on live performance (performing for 450+ concerts and events annually across northeast Ohio and beyond), their recording projects have quickly become a unique aspect of their work, allowing for creative exploration and deep dives into the many genres they love.

 

Learn more at the ensemble at www.opus216.com and on Facebook, Instagram, Spotify, or Apple Music.
