Trevor is in demand to play in other jazz big bands, and performs with the Indianapolis Brass Choir, among other musical groups. 2024 marks the 15th year the Symphony has performed in Bryan during the holiday season.
The series began in 2008 and has been held annually except for one year during the COVID pandemic.
The event is organized by a committee of volunteers with the assistance of many others who help with set-up and cleanup, sell tickets, and serve as ushers and greeters in order to bring this musical celebration of the season to Northwest Ohio.
