How we work

PERFORMERS: We offer outstanding musical performances, many free of charge, to the community. Concerts feature musical styles from Bach and Beethoven to Berlin and Gershwin, from Gilbert and Sullivan to Rodgers and Hammerstein. Local professionals, International artists, and members of the Washington-based military ensembles appear regularly.

VENUES: Performances are staged in the main church sanctuary, with its 1300 seat capacity and splendid acoustic; in the intimate 120-seat historic 1889 chapel; and in the Social Hall, with food and wine in convivial table settings.

SUPPORTERS: St Louis parish provides free use of the various venues on its campus, including light, heat, AC and insurance. The other costs of the series are covered by donations and sponsorships. Contributions to the Concert Series are fully tax deductible.

COMMUNICATION: Our team makes sure that the concert series is often featured in local print media; we have an active presence on Facebook; and we have an email following of 700 recipients.
