  • Join us for the second in a series of three intimate outdoor jazz concerts set on the West Terrace of historic Greenwood Gardens, a 28-acre formal garden and former estate built during the Jazz Age. Hailed as one of the most promising jazz saxophonists of his generation in the New Jersey/New York area, Abel Mireles takes the stage at Greenwood. Abel has developed a unique voice, both as a composer and arranger, concentrating his efforts on perfecting a fine mix between Mexican-American Folkloric Music and Jazz. Greenwood Gardens is a formal garden and historic site rooted in the Arts & Crafts and Classical approaches to garden design. Visitors can enjoy a wide array of flora and fauna as they stroll the terraced gardens, delight in the relaxing sounds of the water features, discover whimsical garden follies, including a Tea House and Summer House built in 1925, and meander down moss-covered pathways dotted with a collection of antique statuary. Gates open at 5:30 p.m. and attendees are invited to stroll through the garden before the concert begins. Wine and cheese will be served under the tent on the West Terrace at 6:00 p.m. before the music starts at 6:30 p.m. Enjoy an hour and a half of some of the finest jazz in town in a unique and beautiful outdoor setting!
