This year’s Queens Jazz Orchestra concert at Flushing Town Hall — a fixture of the Queens jazz world for nearly two decades — has been canceled, a victim of funding cuts from the Trump White House. The orchestra’s director, jazz saxophonist Antonio Hart, instead will bring his own touring group to the hall June 20 — the date set aside for the QJO — to keep the event alive in hopes the unique jazz night can return sometime later.

Five years after the earth-rattling start of the Covid pandemic, officials last weekend marked those days with solemn ceremonies honoring those who battled it and those who died from it. NYC Health + Hospitals/Elmhurst, which served as the city’s unofficial ground zero during the early days of the siege, was the backdrop of choice for those ceremonies — including a visit from Mayor Adams last Friday and an hour-long vigil on Saturday organized by state Sen. Jessica Ramos (D-Jackson Heights).

Like Cinderella, the Queens Jazz Orchestra comes out to party just one night a year. While the name has the ring of solid permanency, the orchestra is in fact a confection — a concert of top-rank jazz whipped up by Flushing Town Hall each year nearly from scratch. The personnel of the 17-piece band changes from year to year, depending more or less on who on a long list of jazz journeymen is free that night.
