PA250 “OUR JAZZ STORY” Celebrating Jazz and Pennsylvania’s Role in American History

From early Swing to the complexities of Bebop and modern fusion, Pennsylvania has been a powerful force in jazz history. Our Commonwealth played a pivotal role in the genre’s evolution, hosting the nation’s first recognized jazz festival, and serving as home to many jazz icons.

Brought to life by the acclaimed Keystone Jazz Orchestra, a 20-piece ensemble directed by Maestro Marko Marcinko, this five-city tour fulfills the America250PA mission to educate, preserve, and celebrate our history across all 67 counties.

The Keystone Jazz Orchestra will have a few Pittsburgh-based musicians in the band— Reggie Watkins, Jason Kush, Rick Matt, and Marty Ashby.

SAXES: Nelson Hill - Chris Oatts - Andy Mohler - Jason Kush - Rick Matt TRUMPETS: Eddie Severn - Duane Eubanks - Ed Jokoboski - Marcell Bellinger TROMBONES: Bill Smith - Kevin McManus - Stafford Hunter - Mark Lusk RHYTHM SECTION: Marty Ashby (g) - Marko Marcinko (dr) - Steve Rudolph (p) - Paul Rostock (b) Amy Banks (voc)

The Central PA Friends of Jazz in cooperation with Slice will have a Saturday Jazz Jam Session every month in their new location - 1500 N 6th St in Harrisburg (formerly Crawdaddy's). Larry Marshall (dr) Peter Paulsen (b) and Steve Rudolph (p) will be the rhythm section for the jam session.
