On Tuesday, February 25, 2025, the beloved baritone saxophonist Claire Daly was honored with a heartfelt Jazz Memorial at Saint Peter’s Church (619 Lexington Ave). More than 275 guests gathered in the sanctuary—another 150 tuned in online—for an evening overflowing with music, stories, and community love.
Organized by the Arts & Architecture Conservancy, the memorial carried on Saint Peter’s enduring tradition of honoring jazz luminaries within its sacred walls—just as they celebrated Roy Ayers and others before.
