Experience the Art Of Jazz This May with Seven Live Performances in the Greater Philadelphia Region by The Jazz Sanctuary, Philadelphia’s Most Innovative Music Organization
Philadelphia, PA – May 5, 2022 – The Jazz Sanctuary, Philadelphia’s most innovative music organization, has seven live performances scheduled around the Greater Philadelphia region this month.
May’s performance schedule begins tonight, Thursday, May 5, with a night of “Jazz & Joe” (live music, coffee and treats) at Incarnation Holy Sacrament Episcopal Church in Morrisville. The performance, which begins at 7 p.m., features The Jazz Sanctuary Quintet, including James Dell’Orefice (piano), Leon Jordan Sr. (drums), Randy Sutin (vibes/percussion), Eddie Etkins (saxophone) and Alan Segal (bass), with guest vocalist Maci Miller. The concert performance is free of charge.
On Mother’s Day, Sunday, May 8, a quartet from The Jazz Sanctuary will be performing during morning services at Incarnation Holy Sacrament Episcopal Church in Drexel Hill, at 10 a.m. The services will feature music from David Kenney (piano), Jordan Sr. (drums), Etkins (saxophone) and Segal (bass). Admission is free of charge.
“As of May 1, The Jazz Sanctuary has reached 48 scheduled events for this year with several more in the scheduling phase,” said Segal, the founder and CEO of the non-profit music organization. “My benchmark year is 2019, when we booked 88 events. That's my goal for this year, 88 or more events. It's a goal that is more than possible to meet. We performed at Main Line Unitarian last month, for the first time in over two years, to a wonderful audience, as they all are! The reception was wonderful and has been so in all our events so far.
“We have been answering a number of calls to appear at retirement communities, which has become a significant part of our mission work,” Segal added. “It is more than enjoyable, and I don't mind when people ask, "how old are you?". When I respond "80" I'm greeted with "no way!". I couldn't feel better, and the question only makes me feel that much better. Music performance is a great vehicle for a happy and useful retirement, as is listening to music.”
