Bruce Barth Trio | Christ & Saint Stephen's Episcopal Church

Sunday, September 3, 2023, 2:00 PM

Jazz pianist and composer Bruce Barth has been sharing his music with listeners the world over for more than thirty-five years. In addition to traveling widely performing his own music, he has also performed with revered jazz masters, and has collaborated with leading musicians of his own generation. Zan Stewart of the Newark Star Ledger writes: "No one sounds quite like Barth. His solos are characterized by robust swing, his ability to tell a story, and by his rich, beguiling sound." His new trio recording, “Dedication,” was released in September 2022 on Origin Records. It is a heartfelt tribute to Bruce’s long-time drummer, the late Montez Coleman, George Floyd, Tommy Flanagan, and McCoy Tyner. It features Montez and Vicente Archer on bass and contains all original compositions by Bruce.

The worship of God is at the very heart of our life together...

Every Sunday we offer inspiring worship with beautiful sacred music. In all we do, we offer the best we have, we experience the mystery of God, hear and wrestle with God's word, share Christ's presence in the sacrament, and feel God's love in our community, and leave strengthened to live and serve in the world. Please join us for worship, fellowship, outreach and education. You'll receive a warm welcome from all of us at Christ & St. Stephen’s. We look forward to seeing you.

For all things come from you, and of your own have we given you. 1 Chronicles 29:14b

Please consider becoming a pledging member of Christ & Saint Stephen's Church.

Stewardship is about being grateful, responsible stewards of the gifts we receive from God. The tradition of giving back to God and to the church comes from the Biblical practice of “tithing,” which means to give back a tenth of our earnings to God.

The Episcopal Church sees stewardship as more than simply contributing money to the church; it’s about reaching out to build relationships from a perspective of abundance instead of scarcity.

Stewardship Keeps Our Doors Open!

Providing flowers for our Sunday worship is a way to remember a loved one, give thanks for a blessing, or honor someone important in your life. Make your flower dedication any Sunday except the Sundays in Lent (when we have no flowers in the church), the Christmas services or Easter Day. To secure a particular Sunday for your flower dedication, call the office at 212-787-2755 ext. 0 or send an e-mail request to Kristin at [email protected].

The standard donation is $45. Please send your check to the parish office (attention: Kristin) two weeks prior to the selected date including the dedication information for the Sunday bulletin.
