St. Peter's Church 619 Lexington Avenue, Manhattan, New York 10022

"This place will always hold a special place in my heart as my mother would donate her time at the church to help run masses and anything else they needed. She would go here every Sunday to help and also workship. My mom recently passed and this church held a beautiful Mass in my mother's name."

"Free jazz vespers 5 pm each Sunday. A must-do for jazz lovers living in or visiting NYC."

"George Braith is a legendary and longtime NYC saxophonist, composer and inventor of the braithophone (double saxophone). A phenominal and creative musician to say the least. A long way from MUSART, his creative space in the late 1960s, Braith is still an incredibly total musician who is to be marveled."

"Ambient peaceful place with great acoustics. The restraint and stumptious architecture of northern regions, with lively candles, fresh flowers, wise deep voice of a priest, mesmerizing sounds of jazz piano and bass. Overall stunning impression of calmness, coziness and intimacy if you will in the busy city that is always in a rush."

"Beautiful church with no terrifying crucifix. Very modern architecture in the round rather than the traditional nave. Quite socially responsive to the community need for clean, well lighted spaces to host special events. Attended the National Domestic Workers Alliance 10th Anniversary VIP Red Carpet for Social Change. Lovely event, truly Christlike people. With churches like this and people like this we have a shot at basic human decency and human rights for all. That' s my story and I'm sticking to it."
