Music at Blessed Sacrament (Seattle) – Past Concerts
Blessed Sacrament is fortunate to house an unparalleled collection of musical instruments situated within a warm and reverberant acoustical environment that preserves musical clarity. The primary purpose of these instruments is to facilitate our stunning weekly liturgical music program, but we believe it is our calling to share the beauty with which we've been blessed. Concerts at Blessed Sacrament are our gift to the greater Seattle community whereby we produce and host top ensembles from throughout our city, making available our resources for the benefit of the arts in general. The Church has long been a supporter of the arts and it is the goal of Concerts at Blessed Sacrament to preserve, enhance, and develop musical arts for the benefit of future generations.
