About the "Sacred Music Sessions": A small select group of musicians are invited to perform in front of a live audience in an intimate setting with up to 50 in the audience. The musicians can set the ticket price and all ticket funds are given to the musicians. The concert is videoed by a 4-6 camera crew and the sound is recorded by an audio engineer. The audience is part of the video. The finished concerts are viewable online free of charge. The artists get a copy of the original live concert grade recorded tracks and are able to use the edited videos. The series is made possible by a corporate grant.
