Music in the Crypt - Out of the Shadows

About the Event

In Music in the Crypt, EXO and music director James Blachly invites audience members to listen deeply to music in the profound and mysterious setting of the Crypt of the Cathedral.

Each piece on the program is inspired by the unique acoustics and atmosphere of the Crypt—evoking shadows, intimacy, and reverence—reflecting EXO’s origins more than 20 years ago, when music was first made in this very space.

The program features works by Franz Schreker, Caroline Shaw, and Ludwig van Beethoven, including Heiliger Dankgesang, presented in an arrangement by James Blachly for string orchestra based on Beethoven’s String Quartet, Op. 132.

Please note: Steps are required to reach the performance space.
