The NMC Jazz Bands, a conglomerate of talented NMC students and community musicians, is partnering with Toys for Tots for our Swingin’ For The Season concert on Saturday, December 7 that will leave your heart ready to leap into the Holidays! We have music from Glenn Miller (Sleigh Ride), Sammy Nestico arrangements for the Count Basie Orchestra (Good Swing Wenceslas, Jingle Bells), a Charles Mingus-style arrangement of Go Tell It on the Mountain, Hanukkah favorites (variations on Ma’oz Tzur, The Funky Dreidel), and more including a Sammy Nestico medley of tunes for you to sing along with!
Each TOY DONATION for Toys for Tots gives you one free admission to the concert. You don’t need to purchase a ticket with a toy donation and it’s a great opportunity to spread some holiday cheer for those less fortunate! Your new, unwrapped toy can be donated at the door and we will have people collecting those toys in the lobby. Our event will take place in the Milliken Auditorium at the Dennos Museum Center.
NO TOY? NO PROBLEM!
