Sacred Music at the Red Door
Sacred Music at the Red Door is the new music series of St. John's Church, West Hartford.
Our expanded series of musical offerings to the Parish and wider community began September 22. The name of the series makes reference to our front doors, with their traditional color of welcome and sanctuary. The series will help to establish St. John's as a destination for those seeking musical refreshment and excellence, drawing on the existing strengths of our choirs (and guest choirs and choir collaborations), architecture, organ, location, and Anglican heritage. The three main elements provided by the series to raise the visibility of St. John's in the wider community are: concerts, monthly evening worship (Evensong), and enhanced Sunday morning worship on more occasions throughout the year (with special offerings with instruments, or formats like Lessons and Carols).
In advance of the new program year, Sacred Music at the Red Door hosted a special event on Sunday, May 22, 2011 at the New Britain Museum of American Art. This event was free and open to the entire Parish, as a thank-you to leadership donors and to 'unveil' the plans for the season, to help generate some advance excitement in the larger arts community. Photographs from the event are posted on the Facebook page for the Series (Sacred Music at the Red Door). You can also follow us on Twitter @SacMusicRedDoor.
We hope to see you at the Red Door often!
