I’ll be playing saxophone and clarinet in the Jaelem Bhate Jazz Orchestra, performing the Duke Ellington & Billy Strayhorn arrangements of Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker Suite along with many of Vancouver’s finest musicians.
Presented by Symphony 21
Symphony 21 presents the Nutcracker in a way you’ve never heard! This holiday season, treat yourself to a performance of Tchaikovsky’s timeless ‘Nutcracker Suite’ (with additional selections from the ballet) in its full orchestral glory. Alongside this seasonal favourite, experience the thrill of a full-sized big band, made up of some of the best jazz musicians in Vancouver performing Duke Ellington and Billy Strayhorn’s arrangements of the Nutcracker.
Celebrate the season with Symphony 21!
