Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with host Joe Dimino.
On this episode, we talk with NYC Big Band Leader Glenn Crytzer about his 2025 Christmas album, Underneath the Mistletoe.

The esteemed leader of the Glenn Crytzer Orchestra stops by Neon Jazz to discuss the November 20 release of this swinging new holiday project. The album features 20 tracks—including 9 new arrangements of classic holiday favorites and 11 brand-new, toe-tapping originals performed by his full 15-piece big band.

Special guest vocalists Dandy Wellington and Hannah Gill join in to bring the festive spirit to life with standout performances. Glenn talks about the making of the album, the craft of big band arranging, holiday jazz influences, and what continues to fuel his creative spark.

We cover quite a bit. Enjoy this interview.
