Join us for a fine music journey inside the luminous surrounds of St Mary’s Cathedral.

Across five exquisite concerts, we invite you to step out of the everyday and into the cathedral’s inner sanctum. Hear and feel the beauty and power of the human voice and the intimacy of small ensembles – artistry that thrives in resonance and closeness. Soaring choral harmonies
sit alongside the electrifying clarity of a quartet, as the deep traditions of sacred music meet the bold spirit of contemporary invention. Each performance creates its own world.

With international luminaries, Australian masters and WA’s finest musicians sharing the stage, Sanctum Series offers a program of profound beauty and thrilling discovery. These evenings are designed to be savoured. Gather with friends and share a drink as the summer sun sets.

Presented with UKARIA and Hayllar Music Tours.
