Friday Noontime Recitals at St. Andrew’s Church

Enjoy weekly Friday noontime recitals at St. Andrew’s Church with diverse musicians and music. Free admission; donations welcome.

Join us for the Friday Noontime Recitals, a long-standing community tradition at St. Andrew’s Church, featuring a rich mix of classical and contemporary music.

The 2026 series begins on Friday, February 6, and continues every Friday through May 29. Concerts take place from 12:10 to 1:00 pm. Admission is free, with a retiring collection welcomed at the door in support of the Music at St. Andrew’s program.

Established in 2013 following the acquisition of a Bösendorfer Imperial grand piano, the series highlights a wide range of performers, including pianists, organists, and vocalists. Recent seasons have featured music by composers such as Chopin, Mozart, and Brahms, alongside works by contemporary composers.

Seating is general admission. The church is wheelchair accessible via the glass doors at 73 Simcoe Street.
