Old North Church is blessed with an extraordinary physical space – that is, our historic Sanctuary – widely acclaimed as an “acoustic gem” and considered to be an ideal venue for many different types of musical presentations. 

​

Curated by the Minister of Music and supervised by the Music Committee at Old North Church, the annual Concerts at Old North series has quickly established a reputation among attendees and artists alike, as one of the most sought-after concert presenting organizations on the North Shore of Massachusetts. Concerts by well-established artists and ensembles are presented throughout the season, providing not only a beautiful space in which to perform, but an opportunity for the community of Marblehead – and surrounding neighborhoods – to enjoy superb performances, without travelling to Boston! Artists and ensembles appearing at Old North have included: Skylark Vocal Ensemble; Kaleidoscope Chamber Ensemble; Calliope’s Call; Chameleon Arts Ensemble of Boston; Jaqueline Schwab improvisational pianist; classical pianist Sergey Schepkin; guitarists Raymond Gonzalez, Ken Bonfield, and Berit Strong; and additional solo and ensemble performances too numerous to list here.

​

Old North Church also sponsors an annual “Messiah Sing!” – specifically intended to raise funds for a mission or cause – as well as the popular annual Blues Night and Jazz Night!
