The concert features Mark Harvey's piece No Walls, an anthem of inclusivity, healing and joy, together with jazz carols and selections from the Duke Ellington/Billy Strayhorn arrangement of Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite - an exuberant big band take on the perennial classic. Proceeds will benefit the Refugee Immigration Ministry (RIM), an organization of multiple faiths and cultures that provides support to individuals and families who have been uprooted by violence. "Exhilarating...ebullient...Aardvark and Ellington are an ideal couple." (Allaboutjazz.com)
