I will remember my song in the night; I will meditate with my heart, and my spirit ponders. (Psalm 77:6)

The Pipe Organ Festival is an annual event of the Manila Cathedral to feature the country’s biggest pipe organ. This musical celebration began in 2006 and ran until 2012 when the cathedral had to close for renovations. The festival resumed in 2014 and ran until 2018.

This year marks the return of the festival with the 9th Pipe Organ Concert of the Manila Cathedral entitled, Our Hearts, Healed and Heard. A night of reflection, music, and thanksgiving. The program is designed to give the congregation a space to listen and feel God’s constant presence through the guidance of diocesean priests. Across the reflections are songs carefully chosen to accompany the concert’s journey of love, healing, and mission.
