RENTAL EVENT - Join acclaimed vocalist Chris Pinnella and the 14- Piece Big Band Project for an extraordinary evening of music benefiting The Society of St. Vincent de Paul Trenton Diocesan Council—an unforgettable concert that helps support the important work of serving individuals and families throughout our community.
Following a string of sold-out performances across the Northeast, Pinnella brings his celebrated Big Band Project to the Grunin Center for a one-night-only event featuring an all-new production created exclusively for the 2026 season.
More than a tribute to the Great American Songbook, The Big Band Project is a thrilling reimagination of some of the most beloved music ever recorded. Backed by a 14-Piece, powerhouse ensemble of exceptional musicians, Pinnella blends the timeless elegance of a classic big band with fresh, contemporary arrangements that are bold, unexpected, and uniquely his own.
Throughout the evening, audiences will experience an exciting musical journey spanning generations and genres with unforgettable performances of songs made famous by Frank Sinatra, Tony Bennett, Bobby Darin, Harry Connick Jr., Michael Bublé, Billy Joel, Chicago, The Beatles, Eagles, James Taylor, Queen and many more.
Most importantly, this special concert serves a greater purpose. Proceeds from the evening will benefit The Society of St. Vincent de Paul Trenton Diocesan Council, helping advance a mission rooted in compassion, dignity, and service. As a voice for the voiceless, St. Vincent de Paul works tirelessly to feed the hungry, clothe those in need, provide shelter for the homeless, alleviate suffering, and promote human dignity and social justice throughout our communities. Guided by the belief that no work of charity is foreign to the Society, their volunteers offer hope and practical assistance to thousands of individuals and families facing hardship each year.
