When You Wish Upon a Star – A Jazz Tribute to 100 Years of Disney

Saturday, November 18, 2023 @ 7:00pm



Grunin Center
1 College Drive, Toms River, NJ 08754

Join us for an unforgettable evening as we celebrate 100 years of Disney through the lens of Jazz. From Snow White to Lady and the Tramp, Mary Poppins and Toy Story to The Jungle Book, popular songs from these famous films have been interpreted and recorded by Disney music fans such as Louis Armstrong, Miles Davis, Dave Brubeck, Dianne Reeves and many more.  “Someday My Prince Will Come,” “He’s a Tramp,” “Everybody Wants to be a Cat” and “The Bare Necessities” are just a few of the iconic songs which will be celebrated as we look back on the impact of jazz on 100 years of Disney magic!

When You Wish Upon a Star will be performed by the newly created house band of The National Jazz Museum in Harlem.  The National Jazz Museum in Harlem is a Smithsonian affiliated museum, led by Artistic Directors Jon Batiste and Christian McBride, to preserve, promote and present jazz by inspiring knowledge, appreciation, and the celebration of jazz locally, nationally and internationally. Pianist Sean Mason will be the music director of the five-piece band, who along with 2 wonderful singers and storytellers, Kim Nalley and Sasha Dobson, will bring these famous songs to life.

This production is not affiliated with, sponsored, or authorized by The Walt Disney Company
