Cecilian Choir
This ensemble rehearses Tuesday evenings at 7pm, and sings on the second and fourth Sundays at the 10am Mass. The music chosen for this group is normally in three or four parts and more traditional in style.
Contemporary Choir
This ensemble rehearses every other Tuesday at 6pm, and sings on the first and third Sundays at the 10am Mass. The music chosen for this group is more contemporary in style and includes the regular use of guitars and auxiliary percussion.
Family Choir
This ensemble rehearses monthly on the Thursday preceding the third Sunday of the month. The rehearsal is normally at 6:30pm, and we sing on the third Sunday at the 8am Mass. This group tends to do more traditional music, some in Latin, in four parts.
InstaChoir
This is a makeshift ensemble that has the potential to be quite different for every 5:15pm (Saturday) Mass. There is a rehearsal on the same day at 4:15pm in the Chapel, during which we learn a prelude and a communion anthem and review hymns and psalms, all which we would sing for the Mass THAT DAY. Musical styles vary.
Youth Choir
On some Saturdays, the InstaChoir has a youth music emphasis. Watch the bulletin or contact the music director for the next Youth Choir scheduled.
Resurection Choir
This ensemble rehearses the first Thursday of the month at 10:30am in the chapel, and sings for funeral Masses.
| Another note to the younger folks: All ages are welcome to participate in any of the choirs. If rehearsal times for any of the choirs is an issue, but you would still like to participate, see me regarding getting the music in advance, or getting help with the music at other times. If you would like to sing duets or trios with your friends and fellow singers, we can work that into the same Mass at which the performing choir would sing. Singing in the choir could count toward your other community service activity if you would choose to do it on a regular basis. |
