Music

The Adult Choir is comprised of sngers ages 16 and up. This ensemble leads all music during worship on a weekly basis. In addition to singing during the annual Festival of Lessons & Carols in December, this ensemble also sings for all major feast day liturgies and other special events.

Cantors are our vocalists that set pitch and lead the liturgical singing of psalms, canticles, anthems, and other sung texts during worship. Cantors often lead unaccompanied singing when a choir is not present. In responsorial recitation of the Psalter, the cantor sings the verses of the psalm and the congregation sings a refrain after each verse or group of verses.

The Cherub Choir is comprised of children in grades K-2. This ensemble sings at select Sunday worship services and together with the St. Cecila and Youth Choirs in presenting the annual Christmas pageant. Choristers are taught basic singing techniques and the beginning elements of music.
