“Jazz is about being in the moment”- Herbie Hancock.
Here at St. James’ Episcopal Church, we celebrate the music of freedom and life. Every year we come together to share in the moment and to immerse ourselves in its embrace and history. Join us for concerts and the Jazz Mass on November 10-12, 2023. This year’s festival will feature the world-class trumpeter, Tom Browne, as well as the Jeremy George trio.

THE REV. EILEEN O’BRIEN preaching
The Jazz Mass is our annual Feast of Holy Improvisation at St. James’ Episcopal Church. It is a divine celebration of music and the spirit. Tom Browne will be joined by the Jeremy George Trio and the St. James’ Choir. The Rev. Eileen O’Brien, Rector of St. James’, will preach. The Lonnie Jackson Award will be presented.
Jazz at St. James’ is always an exceptional musical and community event. This year, I’m particularly excited to hear saxophonist Don Braden and some of the the best jazz musicians Austin has to offer.
