Music has been an important part in the life of the Cathedral since its founding. We offer a thriving and varied choral program, a concert series, and the largest pipe organ on Long Island. Our Choirs are central to the life of the Cathedral, and are a major focus of our energies. These ensembles, modeled on the Cathedral choirs of England, sing a wide variety of music which includes the finest of American, Continental and English anthems and service music of all eras. While the pandemic has limited our ability to offer full choirs at worship services, our music program is still ongoing.
