The School of Music presents its annual "Jazz for Tots" Christmas Concert at 7 p.m., Monday, Dec. 1, in the Music Hall Auditorium located at 1741 Volunteer Blvd. in the Music Building.

The concert is in conjunction with the "Toys for Tots" campaign, a national U.S. Marine Corps program designed to provide Christmas presents for needy children by collecting new toy donations.  

Admission to the Jazz Christmas Concert is a new unwrapped toy, which will be a gift to a less fortunate child on Christmas morning. Cash donations will also be accepted, which will be used toward the purchase of a new toy.

The concert, directed by Keith Brown, will feature UT student jazz ensembles, and the program will include traditional Christmas carols in jazz style.

The concert is open to the public. For more information contact the School of Music Publicity Office at (865) 974-8935.
