Music
Music played before and after the services on the Cathedral's magnificent pipe organ is chosen for spiritual reflection, or as accents for special holidays. For Christmas, Easter, Pentecost, Advent, and Lent, the organ music reflects the tone of the occasion, often involving re-creations of very old organ music as new, refreshing updated settings.
