Anniversary Celebration of 31st Season!


The Sunshine Jazz Organization is very proud to announce theirupcoming 31st Season Gala Celebration! You are invited to join in the festivities on Sunday, January 28th, 2018 from 6:00pm -10:00pm in the ballroom at Miami Shores Country Club.

This year’s featured musical treasure will be sax sensation Richie Cole & The Alto Madness Orchestra. Proclamations, tributes and dedications are also planned including honoring SJO directors and founding members Ms. Alice Day and Ms. Jeanette Tullis, plus a musical tribute honoring dear friend and legendary trumpet maestro Mr. Melton Mustafa, Sr., featuring brother Jesse Jones, Jr. and others. 

The alto sax savant is busier than ever and set to return to South Florida with an 8-piece Alto Madness Orchestra!  "I had my hand in the creation of this most important organization," Cole boasts with pride. "I am honored to have been asked to perform on this landmark day!"  

Richie’s career began in 1969 playing with the Buddy Rich Big Band followed by Lionel Hampton’s and Doc Severinsen’s Big Bands. He toured worldwide with his own quintet popularizing bebop and his own “Alto Madness” style. He’s performed and recorded with many greats: Eddie Jefferson, Manhattan Transfer, Freddie Hubbard, Sonny Stitt, Art Pepper, Nancy Wilson... Notably, Cole has performed at the Village Vanguard and Carnegie Hall as well as gave a command performance for the Queen of England. Richie Cole has recorded over 50 albums and CDs. We should be in very good hands with Richie’s Alto Madness!
