About this event
The New Jersey Symphony concert takes place at New Jersey Performing Arts Center, Newark on November 19, 2026 and February 27, 2027. On stage: Christian McBride.
Jazz and classical meet in this genre-defying program full of color, rhythm, and fun. Montclair's own jazz legend and nine-time GRAMMY Award-winner Christian McBride debuts with your New Jersey Symphony in a concerto tailor-made for him. Eric Jacobsen, hailed by The New York Times as "an interpretive dynamo" returns with the perfumed hues of Debussy's Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun and Rachmaninoff's final orchestral work, written in New York City and full of longing for his Russian home.
