Tuesday Night Jazz at the Church proudly presents the fabulous Mike Broadley!

A favourite of the local traditional jazz scene, Mike left Victoria for Ottawa a few years back and we are delighted to have the opportunity to feature him while he’s here visiting.

Mike performed as a trumpet soloist and stage band leader at public events and ceremonies, and for visiting dignitaries with Canada‘s most prestigious military bands - including our own Naden Band of the Pacific. He’s a fabulous showman steeped in the trumpet and vocal traditions of the great Louis Armstrong, Rex Stewart and more. This show promises to have plenty of classics and plenty of surprises!

Featuring some of Michael’s old running mates:
Al Pease, saxophonist and clarinettist 
Thomas Vickery, pianist 
Don Cox, bassist 
Kelby MacNayr, drummer

For anyone who was not able to attend in person, here is the recording we made of ‘Art of the Duo’ with Attila Fias and Miguelito Valdes. Tuesday Night Jazz at the Church continues our mission to present artistically worthy programs that enliven the spirit in all of us. Join us in-person on Tuesdays. 

You all know Sara as a fabulous Fado and Jazz singer. Sara has also collaborated with singers on a number of sound healing projects over the past decade and has recently begun exploring solo work. She finds sound healing extremely gratifying and would like to share this with our community.

Sound Healing is an improvised practice of trusting and tapping into the space, surrounding sounds and the energy of those attending - then intuitively the music comes.

Starting June 2nd, Sara will be offering these improvised weekly sessions in the sanctuary of James Bay United Church. Each experience will be completely different depending on who comes that day.
