Taking inspiration from televised holiday specials of yore with music legends
like Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra, the concert, hosted at Bing Crosby's former
estate, features an incredible line-up of musicians and Broadway artists.
"As we approach the holidays, we wanted to offer people some respite from the
past few months and raise money for artists who have been so profoundly
impacted by the pandemic," said Suzanne Waldowski Roche, Executive Director of
JATB. "Our vision for this event is to provide a platform for incredible
artists to bring a much needed modicum of joy to our audience, as well as some
light-hearted festivity to the season."
Emmy Award winner Frank DeLella is the event co-host. Other guests include
Kathryn Crosby and a range of award-winning vocalists, musicians and dancers
from around the world.
