LOCATION:St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church\, 2100 Boyer Ave E\, Seattle\

DESCRIPTION:Born in ninth-century Constantinople\, Kassia the Nun was a pr
 ecocious scholar\, defender of icons\, abbess\, poet\, and composer. She s
 tands as the preeminent woman hymnographer of the Byzantine tradition. Her
  hymns still resound in Orthodox worship today\, her voice especially echo
 ing through Lent and Holy Week. Her most famous work\, known popularly as 
 “The Hymn of Kassianí\,” is a hauntingly beautiful lament of the anon
 ymous woman who anointed Jesus’s feet before his crucifixion. Discover K
 assia’s medieval melodies as she herself sang them—before centuries of
  tradition shaped them into the versions Orthodox faithful know today.\n\n
