The Ensemble will appear under the direction of Joseph Riposo, affiliate artist, and John Coggiola, assistant professor in the Rose, Jules R. and Sanford S. Setnor School of Music in the College of Visual and Performing Arts. The concert is free and open to the public.

The Ensemble will perform "Apple Honey" and "Four Brothers" by Woody Herman; "Donna Lee" by Charlie Parker, arranged by Herry Wolker; "Dat Dere" by Bobby Timmons; "She's Gone" by Chuck Mangione, arranged by Ray Brown; "Hidden Soul" composed and arranged by Riposo; and "The Last Dive" by Maynard Ferguson.
