Faith through the Jazz Mass

from Seekin' Deacon · host Cuyler OConnor

The Rev. Jemonde Taylor explains the forward-thinking of St. Ambrsose and the Jazz Mass. He also explores the impact of how music speaks to the people and the basis of beauty in liturgy. The churches DNA is one of embracing black music and how it has reached out effectively to a younger demographic. A beautiful intergenerational service is offered and established through the art of jazz. The original roots of the Jazz Mass go back to the leadership of Rev. Arthur Cochran, rector of St. Ambrose from 1920-1927.
