The Jazz Sanctuary: Bringing People Together Through Music

WRTI Your Classical and Jazz Source | By Susan Lewis
Published August 26, 2013 at 7:41 AM EDT

Music lives in South Philadelphia through The Jazz Sanctuary, an organization that takes jazz into to houses of worship and other nontraditional venues. As WRTI’s Susan Lewis reports, founder Alan Segal says jazz and the spiritual community drove his recovery from a life threatening crisis.

The Jazz Sanctuary presents concerts open to the public at houses of worship and other non-profit venues. Information about upcoming concerts.
