Overview
The Bethany Baptist Church of Newark celebrates 25 years of monthly Jazz Vespers! Join us at Bethany Baptist for this free concert combining jazz music and worship.
Our featured artist in May is pianist Arturo O’Farrill, a familiar face to NJPAC jazz audiences. Born in Mexico and raised in New York, the six-time GRAMMY® winner is a prolific musician, composer and passionate promoter of Latin music and its cultural heritage. He plays with bands and orchestras all over the world, including his own Afro Latin Jazz Orchestra and the Arturo O’Farrill Sextet. DownBeat calls him “one of our greatest living pianists.”
Bethany Baptist Church is located at 275 W. Market Street, Newark, New Jersey.
