Gabriel Mark Hasselbach, JUNO Award winning trumpeter and flautist, will be performing at the venerable Jazz Vespers at St Andrews Wesley United Church on Burrard at Smythe. Free parking below, use alley entrance. Jazz Vespers is a tradition from the 40's, brought into the public eye by Duke Ellington and a few other icons in NYC. Gabriel will have a quartet made up of Tim Stacey on bass, Chris Haas on drums, and Jason Decouto on grand piano. He has a swinging, straight-ahead set planned with some classics from Horace Silver and Cole Porter, as well as a few originals. Rev Dan Chambers has a message prepared about how Hope and Belief Systems provide some structure in our lives and smooth out the sometimes rough ride. The music has been tailored to this message, so come and see how it all fits together....He'll keep it swingin' and joyous.
