2023-2024 Season of Concerts and Music | St. Paul's Cleveland Heights

Welcome to a new season of music at St. Paul’s. From the time of Walter Blodgett and forward to the present, fine music has played its part in forming the voice of our faith and of the wider community. St. Paul’s has hosted countless concerts, recitals, and special events, and has been a leader in liturgical music through its choirs and instruments.
