Orthodox Church in America's Annual Musician Sunday Announced

SPRINGFIELD, VA [OCA]

The Sunday on or following the commemoration of St. Romanus the Melodist (October 1) has been designated by Holy Synod of Bishops of the Orthodox Church in America as a date to honor the essential role of liturgical music in the life of the Orthodox Church. This year, “Church Musician Sunday” will fall next Sunday on October 6, 2024.
