Dr. Harris played at Saint Peter's many times over the decades, and it was his wish to have his memorial at the church. Dr. Harris transitioned on December 8, 2021.
This memorial is presented by the Barry Harris Institute of Jazz, Jazz Foundation of America, and Saint Peter's Church.
A musical prelude begins at 6:30 pm, and the memorial officially begins at 7. The memorial concert runs approximately 90 minutes and is free to attend. There will be a reception afterwards at the church, ending at 9:30 pm.
