At 8 p.m. Dec. 8,
featured professional jazz artists, Wesleyan jazz faculty and students will
present "The Jazz Nutcracker," arranged by Duke Ellington and Billy
Strayhorn, and performed in a special "big band" format for only the second

Opening the Saturday

with Jeff Bush, Adam Loudin, Paul Thompson and Sean Parsons of Marshall
University.
