Winter Wunderland, beginning at 7 p.m. Dec. 2 and 3 in the UND Memorial Union Ballroom, will feature more than 200 of UND's finest musicians, a news release said. They will perform popular holiday songs, classic carols and everything in between while guests enjoy a five-course dinner.
Performers will include the UND Concert Choir, Varsity Bards, Allegro Women's Choir, Varsity Gentlemen, Chamber Choir, Trumpet Ensemble and the Faculty Brass Trio.
Also featured will be a favorite local band, Jazz on Tap, with special guest Matt Strand performing highlights from Vince Guaraldi's classic holiday album, "A Charlie Brown Christmas."
