Join us at St Mary’s for a unique blend of exceptional jazz rooted in the context of meditation and prayer. This month we welcome the Daniel Howard Quartet!
Daniel Howard aims to breathe fresh life into old classics, and classic taste into his arrangements and originals. He draws from a variety of influences including Blue Note records of the 60s, Brazilian jazz and Modern jazz with the intent of giving the audience an experience that is both intellectual and groovy. Joining Daniel are some of Canada's finest musical talent including Max Huberdeau on piano, Ryan Oliver on Sax and John Lee on drums.
A collection will be taken in support of this ongoing series. Suggested donation $20.

About Jazz Evensong
Evolving out of two ancient services of prayer as the sun is setting—vespers and compline—the service of Evensong is an opportunity to put the events of the past day into perspective, to ground one’s body, mind and spirit in preparation for the restorative night of sleep, when in our dreaming, our subconscious will continue the creative work of making sense of our experiences.
Jazz, as Ken Burns says, is “a profound intersection of freedom and creativity”. So, whether you are a seasoned jazz lover or a newcomer to the genre, you will be sure to find something to speak to you at this unique and moving experience of making sense of your day. Don’t miss your chance to be a part of this inspiring and intimate celebration of faith and music. All are welcome!
