A Tapestry of Sacred Music

Welcome once again to A Tapestry of Sacred Music, a unique three-day festival presented by Esplanade – Theatres on the Bay.

 

Now in its 16th edition, the festival highlights the artistry of sounds in houses of worship—gurdwaras, mosques, temples and cathedrals—giving our audiences here a glimpse into distant eras and rarified spaces.
