Celebrate the holiday season with upcoming CCM concerts

Swing into the festive season on Sunday, Nov. 24, with CCM's holiday-themed Wonderland jazz concert. Pianist Ted Rosenthal joins the CCM Jazz Orchestra for an enchanted evening of classic tunes. Rosenthal's holiday album, also titled Wonderland, has been hailed as one of the best holiday records of the past 30 years, making this a can't-miss concert! CCM faculty member Scott Belck conducts. Below, watch a promotional video for the concert.

The festivities continue Dec. 7-8 with Feast of Carols, CCM's annual winter holiday concert of choral favorites.
