‘A Peter White Christmas’ set for Dec. 8

Posted

“A Peter White Christmas” with Mindi Abair and Vincent Ingala is coming to town on Dec. 8 to present a contemporary jazz concert at the Ponte Vedra Concert Hall.

White is an extraordinary and fluent acoustic guitarist whose skills are world-renowned. Saxophonist Abair also returns again this year. Ingala is no stranger to contemporary jazz audiences — he’s known for his charisma, energy and musicianship.

“My earliest memories of Christmas were probably not much different from many other people: snowflakes, tinsel, Santa Claus, reindeer and the opening of presents surrounded by family,” said White. “As a child, my father taught me to play Christmas music on my first instrument, the recorder, and my love for Christmas music has endured throughout the years. I hope this tour will be an opportunity for many smooth jazz fans to enjoy their favorite Christmas songs in a family setting. You know, I might even bring my recorder!”

White’s classic acoustic guitar style can be heard on his latest release “Music for Starlux Airlines” (2019).

The doors open at 7 p.m., and the show starts at 8 p.m. Tickets are priced at $66-$116.50 and may be purchased at ticketmaster.com or at the St. Augustine Amphitheatre box office. The Ponte Vedra Concert Hall box office is closed at this time.

The Amp box office is open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Fridays and 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Saturdays. Ticket purchases are available via credit card and debit card only. A valid ID is required for all debit and credit card transactions.
