GROVE CITY, Pa. – Get ready to hear the “coolest” jazz north of Pittsburgh when the Grove City College Stage Band and Jazz Ensemble take the stage for the fifth annual winter jazz concert at 8 p.m. Dec. 5 in Ketler Auditorium of the Pew Fine Arts Center. The event is free and open to the public; no tickets are required.
The performance will showcase a number of traditional Christmas tunes, such as “O Come All Ye Faithful,” “God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen,” “Jingle Bells,” “Charlie Brown Christmas Suite” and “Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer,” as well as a variety of Big Band and jazz favorites.
In addition, the stage band will perform a number of Glenn Miller-style group vocals including “Chattanooga Choo-Choo” and “Home for the Holidays.” The Jazz Ensemble will cap the concert off with a number of Latin, funk and traditional swing tunes, and will feature sophomore music major, Emily Bzdafka of Avon Lake, Ohio, singing on “Chega de Saudade” and “I Got It Bad.”
The concert is under the direction of Dr. Joseph Pisano ’94, director of music and fine arts technology and assistant to the chairman of the music and fine arts department. Doors will open at 7:30 p.m.
