Music has a unique way of opening our hearts, lifting our spirits, and bringing us together in shared joy. Wayzata Community Church is proud to bring back the Music Series that will fill our Sanctuary with sounds that inspire, challenge, and delight. Experience an unforgettable lineup of performances—from classical masterpieces and family-friendly concerts to the soulful jazz of Charles Lazarus and the breathtaking voices of Cantus. Join us for a season where every note inspires, and every concert brings us closer together.
