About Us
Welcome to Season V
Dear Friends,
We are delighted to welcome you to the 2025/26 season of Music at Saint Mary, our fifth year of bringing inspiring music to our community.
This milestone season begins with a special opening concert on September 5 at OSU’s Timashev Recital Hall, featuring The Alonso Brothers in Carnegie Bound, a program celebrating their upcoming Carnegie Hall duo debut.
The season ahead is rich with highlights: the return of ProMusica and ProArte, our Third Annual High School Choral Invitational, performances by the acclaimed Callisto Quartet, community favorites like Village Lights and the Columbus International Children’s Choir, and many more surprises along the way.
In every note we hear echoes of what unites us: joy, hope, and the longing for meaning. May this fifth season at St. Mary bring that spirit richly to life.
Sincerely, Orlay Alonso & The Music at St. Mary Team
