More than 30 of NYC's top jazz artists will gather on 9/11 to mark the anniversary of New York's most tragic day with The Heart of Jazz.
As much spiritual event as concert, since 2005 The Heart of Jazz has offered NYC's jazz community a locale to gather, to mourn and look forward in peace --- a place to explore the impact of the WTC attacks on themselves, their musical family and their fellow NYers --- through the healing qualities of the music.
Community Outreach Concert presented by the New York Chinese Opera Society. This concert is closed to the public but please check their website for upcoming exciting concerts presented by the Society.

Sept. 11, 8:20 AM ending at 8:46 AM - A poetic call for tolerance and peace through silence, music, and movement, by acclaimed choreographer Jacqulyn Buglisi. Dancers will come from different directions in a procession to form a labyrinth of peace, symbolizing eternity, purity and the continuous life cycle. Each dancer will embrace a single terracotta plate. The plates represent a symbolic banquet table uniting humanity, where silence is needed for dialog, the idea created by artist Rosella Vasta.
