The Friends of Cathedral Music series has long been a vital part of the Cathedral’s outreach to the greater community. It is an offering to the people of our city and beyond. The Cathedral serves Albuquerque by opening its doors and inviting others to share in these musical gifts. People from all walks of life come from far and wide to experience the splendor of our musical events. Your presence among us enriches our lives. We anticipate great moments for concert-goers with the 21st musical season at the Cathedral of St. John. We’ve combined a memorable repertoire of classical music with exceptionally talented artists from across the globe. The 2014–2015 season includes concerts, special liturgical events and, throughout the season of Lent, musical meditations each Friday evening alongside a unique opportunity to support our Cathedral’s Food Pantry. We invite you to join us: to take part, to share, to be touched by the Spirit that moves through music, to be nourished by that same Spirit, and be deepened in your relationship with each other and God through great music and talented musicians. You are welcome at the Cathedral of St. John and you honor us by your presence. The Very Rev. J.
