Special thanks to the Dadourian Foundation for their generous grant in support of our 2019 music events.

Join us for the first Thursday of every month from April through June for an evening of live jazz, wine, and dancing—Armenian style!

We are thrilled to welcome John Baboian to our newly-renovated contemporary space. John has been teaching guitar at Berklee College of Music for 39 years and brings his amazing talent and fellow musicians to light up this venue.

The John Baboian Quartet features Baboian on guitar, Daniel Ian Smith on woodwinds, Bruce Gertz on bass, and Larry Finn on drum set. The quartet plays mainstream and contemporary jazz and Latin music, mainly composed by Baboian but with a few choice standards. The members have performed around the world with a variety of great musicians.

They will be joined next Thursday, May 2 by featured vocalist and clarinetist, Christina Baboian for an evening of live jazz, wine, and dancing—Armenian style!
