Jazz at Lincoln Center with Wynton Marsalis: "Abyssinian: A Gospel Celebration"
Abyssinian Mass: A Gospel Celebration with Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra, Wynton Marsalis, and Chorale Le Chateau
This Sunday (Oct. 27th) join the Celebrity Series of Boston in this joyful celebration with some of the greatest current jazz and gospel musicians. Never has Marsalis melded the codes of sacred and secular expression more successfully than with the 2008 extended work Abyssinian Mass, commissioned to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the Abyssinian Baptist Church in Harlem. In this performance, Jazz at Lincoln Center Orchestra revisits this masterwork, adding the 70-voice gospel choir, Chorale Le Chateau, conducted by Damien Sneed.Learn more and purchase tickets at http://celebrityseries.org/CS_performers_2013_14/jlco.htm
