St Olave Church

Two churches with one mission – to give space for grace in the 21st century Founded many centuries ago, St Olave Hart St and St Katharine Cree remain centres of Christian life and worship in the heart of the City of London. St Olave’s has a tradition, going back over 50 years, of regular weekly lunchtime recitals of classical music. The acoustic is equally suited to repertoire from solo instruments (including piano) and song, through small ensembles such as trios, quartets and quintets, all the way through to small orchestras and choirs. The organ, though small, is well designed and capable of delivering music of both subtlety and power. The recitals also include performances from other traditions, including flamenco, Brazilian music and Arabic song.
