Fayette County Public Library is presenting “Have Yourself a Jazzy Little Christmas,” a free Christmas concert starring vocalist Jazzy Jackie Lee. It is scheduled for Thursday, Dec. 15, at 6:30 p.m.
The public is invited, and light refreshments will be available free of charge, courtesy of Hanna Brothers Catering and the Friends of the Fayette County Public Library.
The evening’s entertainment will open with an instrumental interlude by two department heads with Fayette County government: pianist Phil Frieder (CIO of information systems) and percussionist Lewis Patterson (human resources director). Then Jackie Lee will begin singing, accompanied by Phil Frieder and by her own accompanist Julius Speed on piano. The audience can expect to enjoy a couple of hours of singable seasonal favorites with a contemporary flair.
