Jingle Jazz: Swingin’ Into the Holidays

The Cincinnati Contemporary Jazz Orchestra brings back its popular holiday concert with a festive twist. This year's show reimagines holiday classics with big band arrangements while introducing new seasonal selections. You'll hear music from CCJO's 2025 album "Nutcracker Remix" plus beloved standards, all performed with the group's signature swinging style. Singer Mandy Gaines joins the ensemble, drawing from favorites like "Ella Wishes You a Swinging Christmas." This concert is perfect for families looking to celebrate the season together with live music and holiday cheer. Come as you are—the event even encourages guests to wear their most festive (or deliberately un-festive) holiday sweaters. Expect an evening of musical joy, surprises, and plenty of swing to get everyone in the holiday mood.
