Mount Saint Peter Concert Series

“What tears I shed in your hymns and canticles! How deeply was I moved by the voices of your sweet singing Church!”
 ~ St. Augustine

 “A musical performance also softens hard hearts, leads in the humor of reconciliation, and summons the Holy Spirit.”
 ~ Hildegard of Bingen

 The Mount Saint Peter Concert Series seeks to be a part of the ageless tradition of sacred music performances for the greater community. Since the Middle Ages churches have been places where art and culture deeply abide and flourish. 

Each year the Mount Saint Peter Concert Series seeks to offer several concerts of sacred music to the parish and to the greater local community. These special events serve to draw us closer to God and to one another through the gift of music.

This season’s concerts are:
