Experience a vibrant evening of music that combines ecstatic African American spirituals with lively jazz.

Led by Chuck Archard, musician and music professor at Rollins College, this program pays tribute to the enduring influence of spirituals on jazz music and beyond. The evening features jazz interpretations of traditional gospel spirituals — giving these devotional works some of that big-band swing.

The concert is a capstone event of the Bach Festival Society’s 90th anniversary season of performances.

7:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 13, Knowles Memorial Chapel, Rollins College, $15-$83.
