The Chorus will kick off the event with Haydn's Theresa Mass conducted by Michael Barrett . Then, the World Music Ensemble will perform music from around the world, including original arrangements and new compositions. Multi-instrumentalist Behtash Babadi is the musical director. Jazz Creative Combo & Big Band The jazz combo 's philosophy is to play creative jazz and have fun. By bringing in new arrangements of old music, or brand new compositions, we try and keep the spark of jazz well alive.
