Introducing our new Assistant Director of Music and Organist, Christopher Stroh! Our final concert of the 2021 Summer Recital Series is on August 25.
Chris Stroh comes to Seattle after 15 years as the Principal Organist for the Basilica of Saint Mary in Minneapolis, Minnesota. He will play a program of music in honor of the Blessed Virgin Mary, including Dietrich Buxtehude's Magnificat.
The concert will take place at 7pm; doors open at 6:30pm.
Summer concerts, approximately 1 hour long with no intermission, are only presented in-person and are not livestreamed. Registration is no longer required and there are no limits on the number of attendees. Masks are required for those who are not vaccinated against COVID-19 and optional (but recommended) for fully vaccinated people. Social distancing is not required, but there is plenty of room to spread out in the Cathedral if you wish.
Suggested donation for each recital is $18 General Admission / $10 Students & Seniors. We encourage you to purchase tickets in advance to help prevent long entry lines, but tickets will also be sold at the door. $1-$9.99 pay-what-you-can tickets and an option to offer a donation greater than the suggested amount are also available at the ticketing link and the door.
