In August 1979, the ensemble was the opening band on the first night of the First Annual Chicago Jazz Festival. 41 years later, the CJO stands as not only the oldest professional big band in Chicago, but also the second oldest professional civic jazz orchestra in the United States (second only to the Columbus Jazz Orchestra).
