Experience Jazz Sunday at St. Paul
ChurchJazz, a Chicago-based jazz ministry, will come to paint the town jazz at St. Paul on Sunday, July 28. This group of veteran musicians will play the Chicago Jazz Mass at the 9 and 11:15 a.m. services. Soloist will be Daniel Riley. He will be joined by Quad-Cities soprano Jennifer Van Speybroeck on a recently premiered piece, “How Beautiful Upon the Mountains,” based on Isaiah 52:7-10.
It is free and open to the public.

The repertoire includes the Jazz Passion, the Chicago Jazz Mass, the Jazz Psalms, jazz hymn festivals, a jazz vespers service, and Bending Towards the Light, a jazz nativity.
