A holiday concert was held at Ohr Kodesh Congreation in Chevy Chase, MD on Saturday, November 28 to benefit Jubilee. Opera Tenor Rolando Sanz sang classical opera, jazz, and songs of Hebrew origin and was accompanied by his brother, saxophonist Kristofer Sanz and pianist  Joy Schreier. Over 225 people attended the concert and everyone who attended was very impressed with the quality of the music and the particular music selections.
