The final concert, Tani Tabbal Trio will be at the historic UAME Church on Forester Avenue at 7:00 p.m. This will be the first official use of this beautifully restored space.
The Hudson Valley Jazz Festival was created and developed by musician and village resident Steve Rubin. The festival has grown over time and became one of the premier Jazz festivals in New York State. It is also a labor of love and result of tenacity and hard work. The event is an important tourism attraction, it features some of the region’s finest restaurants, eateries, cultural centers and puts a bright spotlight on the impressive Jazz musicians throughout the area.
