Jazz at the MEMO presents “Autumn Leaves” with Queen City Cabaret

Nothing evokes fall quite like chilly nights around the fire, amber skies, leaves crunching underfoot, and of course, the romantic tunes that mark the waning year. Enjoy the many moods and colors of the season this November as Matthew Umphreys and Sarah Folsom of Queen City Cabaret share an evening of beloved standards and smoky, autumnal jazz.  

Featuring Sarah Folsom (vocals), Matthew Umphreys (piano) 


Bop those winter blues as Jazz at the Memo returns for the 2025-26 season in the beaux arts splendor of historic Memorial Hall. The finest of Cincinnati’s thriving jazz scene offer intimate performances in the theater’s superb acoustic, featuring local favorites Mandy Gaines, the Faux Frenchmen, Mambo Combo and more. In December, hear those sleighbells swing as the series takes a festive turn with faithful recreations of beloved holiday jazz albums, including the Christmas music of Nat “King” Cole, Oscar Peterson and the perennially sold-out A Charlie Brown Christmas performed by the Phil DeGreg Trio
