Cathedral Concert Series
History
The Cathedral Concert Series was founded in 1974. The Cathedral Cultural Series strives to fill a void in the Detroit area by providing a venue for the performance of rarely heard organ and choral music by critically acclaimed artists in the acoustically rich and historic environment of the Cathedral of the Most Blessed Sacrament.
The Series promotes international, national and local talent in concert with ticket prices kept to a minimum for the advantage of the local community. As an avenue for the premier of new works, the Cathedral Concert Series presents diverse musical events covering the renaissance through Jazz and Gospel.
The Cathedral Concert Series has presented concerts by Vienna Choir Boys and Chanticleer, as well as recitals by world acclaimed organists Olivier Latry, Petr Plany, Simon Preston, Rudolf Innig, Pierre Cochereau and James Kibbie.
As a nonprofit organization, funding is provided by the Michigan Council for Arts and Cultural Affairs, the National Endowment for the Arts, the Archdiocese of Detroit and private donations.
