It’s hot. It’s cool. Hot sun. Cool shade. Hot licks. Cool jazz.

The 2nd Annual Mastropietro Winery Jazz Festival, Sunday, June 28, brings together five of the best local and regional jazz bands for nine hours of great jazz at this beautiful family winery near Berlin Center.

The stellar trumpeter Jack Schantz from Akron and Cleveland and his Quartet open the show at 1 p.m., followed by Youngstown vocalist extraordinaire Janet Opritza-Davis & Company (her five-piece group) at 3:30. Pittsburgh’s premier jazz band Harry  Cardillo Trio take the stage  at 5 with vocalist Michelle Bensen. The John Morton Quartet, led by Akron vocalist John Morton, who is well known by aficionados in this area, comes on at 6:30, with Youngstown’s premier jazz combo, The John Reese Project — led by trombonist and vocalist John Reese– filling the featured spot at 8.

Local artisans will be displaying their work on the grounds, the Fifth Season Restaurant and Catering Company will offer a varied menu throughout the day, and of course, visitors can enjoy selections from the extensive Mastropietro wine list, the perfect jazz compliment. Each guest will receive a complimentary, commemorative wine glass.

Parking on the grounds is free.

Advance tickets, at $20 for the event, may be reserved by credit card by calling 330 718-4323; admission at the gate will be $25. In the event of bad weather, the event will move into the winery’s banquet room.
