Join the Pontifical Institute of Sacred Music for a moment of prayer, music, and fellowship on the historic campus of the Holy Father’s University of Music.

The gathering begins with the Angelus prayer and a short program of sacred music performed by the students in the Abbey Church of the Pontifical Institute of Sacred Music. From Gregorian chant to newly composed works, under the direction of the Rector, Fr. Robert Mehlhart OP (“Let’s Sing with the Pope”), the performance showcases the talent of a uniquely international student body representing over 40 nations.

Guests are then invited to a light lunch and informal conversation with the Rector in the historic cloisters of the Institute, a space normally closed to the public.

Discover the Holy Father’s University of Music through prayer and sacred sound.
