Cathedral Music 2009-2010 • 16th Season

Welcome to the Sixteenth season of Friends of Cathedral Music! We are pleased to welcome many celebrated artists to the Cathedral this year as the series continues to go from strength to strength. 

Since its inception FCM has brought major artists to our community, through the support of committed patrons from throughout New Mexico and beyond. In recent years we have expanded our choral and organ concerts to include the landmark Cathedral Commissions program. Through this program we commission new choral works to be written for the Cathedral Choir each year in tandem with a composer residency around the first performance. We are honoured to present two premieres on the same day this year. The 2009-2010 commission to the celebrated organist-composer David Briggs will be coupled with 2008-2009 commission to Tarik O'Regan, which was postponed until this season. Mr. O'Regan will also speak at the Dean’s Forum on Composing for the Church in the 21st century. 


You will find details of all our concerts in this brochure. We encourage you to join us on a glorious music journey throughout this year filled with musical delights from Seventeenth century Spain, Eighteenth Century Italy, Twentieth Century France and America and of course the finest works of our time. 

Please consider becoming a Friend of Cathedral Music. We need your support to bring great music to this community and all contributions are sincerely appreciated.We look forward to welcoming you!
