Wade in the Water

Saturday, January 26 | 7:00pm | Sanctuary

Theodicy is back! The Center for Arts and Spirituality welcomes Theodicy Jazz Collective back to NLC for an evening of music and conversation. The concert and discussion will focus on the historical roots of jazz, blues, and freedom songs, and their strong connection to spirituality. With repertoire that spans from Mozart's "Ave Verum Corpus" to John Coltrane's legendary, "Love Supreme," this concert explores the deep spiritual roots of improvised music. Incorporating sounds from jazz, gospel, Latin America and Africa, the music is a constant prayer, sometimes a cry of joy, sometimes a shout for action, sometimes a deep, silent, hope. Reception will follow the concert.

You will not want to miss! Free and open to the public. All ages are welcome!
