In this program, renowned classical and jazz artists and friends meld their musical perspectives in an unusual collaboration and unique celebration of the Yuletide season that is guaranteed to generate an abundance of holiday cheer. These four team up to bridge contemporary improvisational jazz and the “art music” of Baroque and Renaissance times. This team’s virtuoso improvisations on Yuletide favorites, and their renditions of classical standards bring together the best of jazz and classical worlds in an all new program for 2019.
