Join The King’s Singers and Washington National Cathedral Choirs as we celebrate the beauty, breadth and power of sacred music at the 2021 Sacred Choral Music Festival on February 26-28. 
The festival weekend includes opportunities for rehearsals, performances, workshops, lectures, discussions, fellowship, and our national worship service broadcast. 

Festival course offerings include:
THE CATHEDRAL CHORAL EXPERIENCE
- Junior & Senior Choristers 
- Adult Singers (Sopranos, Altos, Tenors, & Basses) 
STEWARDING & TRANSFORMING OUR TRADITION

The Sacred Choral Music Festival celebrates our rich and broad musical heritage and serves to uplift new music. Led by Canon Michael McCarthy and the Cathedral music staff, the Festival invites adults and young musicians to participate in worship in the magnificent setting of the National Cathedral.

Director David Alden’s dreamlike setting provides a compelling backdrop for this dramatic story of jealousy and vengeance on the stage of the Metropolitan opera. Marcelo Álvarez stars as the conflicted king; Sondra Radvanovsky is Amelia, the object of his secret passion; and Dmitri Hvorostovsky is her suspicious husband. Kathleen Kim is the page Oscar, and Stephanie Blythe sings the role of the fortune-teller Ulrica. Fabio Luisi conducts.
