Featuring jazz interpretations of Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker, Brian Barlow’s Big Band musicians will fill the church with the great sounds of Duke Ellington’s Nutcracker Suite — the quintessential Ellington blend of wit and sophistication.
Jazz Vespers at Christ Church is a popular, informal service held every other Sunday afternoon from September to June, and featuring some of the city’s finest jazz musicians. This service has been included in the Toronto Jazz Festival line-up. Our Jazz Vespers include a reflective reading and prayers for the needs of the world. A voluntary collection is taken.
