The church at Nelson and Burrard is one of only two places in the world offering weekly Jazz Vespers. You’d have to go to Manhattan to find another church with an equally serious commitment to this music.
This Sunday (November 15) Dal Richards’ powerhouse orchestra, a legend on the Vancouver scene, will fill the sanctuary with swinging music ranging from jazz to 1930s dance tunes.
The following Sunday (November 22), pianist and composer Sharon Minemoto brings her lyrical style, and one of the tightest and most exciting quartets to the audience.
And, finally, Cory Weeds (on November 29) top-notch saxophonist and owner of The Cellar along with his quartet will dance the audience into the holiday season with his upbeat, original performance.
All performances are 4-5 pm in the beautiful Gothic sanctuary at St. Andrew’s on the corner of Burrard and Nelson.
There’s no admission, parking is free – a musical bargain .
