The concert will be held at the Uniting Church, Salamander Bay, on Saturday, November 29.
Titled A Classical Christmas, the program will feature Haydn's Mass in G for Saint Nicholas, which will be presented by soloists and a string orchestra, and jazz arrangements of some popular festive songs.
"Having had such a successful concert last year, the church are hosting us again," the group's Pat Gibson said.
"We will be doing jazz versions of Christmas songs like Blue Christmas, Winter Wonderland and Santa Claus is Coming to Town.
"It will be mostly classical, but we will break out into other items."
The ensemble was able to hold the end-of-year concert again thanks to a $2000 grant from Port Stephens Council.
"The ensemble . . . is delighted to be the recipient of a grant from the Port Stephens Council and is also grateful to the Uniting Church for again hosting [the] end of November Christmas performance," Gibson said.
Tickets for the concert, starting at 2pm, cost $25 and are on sale now from Black Pepper in Salamander Bay Shopping Centre.
