Sedona Jazz at the Church

As many folk know, we've a series of concerts at the church called the Sedona Jazz at the Church Concert Series. Along with the series, we've also put up a few really great jazz videos on our YouTube site playlist, "Great Jazz Videos - Trumpets, Flugels, Conch, Drums, et al."

There are new pieces from pianists Judy Roberts and Jim Martinez, trombonist Steve Turre playing the conch, and Dizzy Gillespie and the United Nations Orchestra doing a piece featuring three great drummers (Ignacio Berroa, Airto Moreira and Giovanni Hidalgo) and singer Flora Purim.

The videos point to the creativeness of jazz musicians, and that when folk use the gifts God gives them, stunningly beautiful things can happen, so check out the new postings, as I am sure you will enjoy them.

And, of course - remember to check our Sedona Jazz at the Church Concert Series schedule for updates and additions, and mark your calendar so as not to miss any of these great nights at Saint Luke's!

An upcoming evening includes not only a night of jazz ballads, but dancing under the stars, too! Ooo la la!!!!
