"Music is integral to the liturgy. It unifies those gathered to worship, supports the song of the congregation, highlights significant parts of the liturgical action, and helps to set the tone for each celebration."
(U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, Built of Living Stones, November 16, 2000)

 

Cantors
Cantors are a vital part of our music ministry it is the cantor’s responsibility to welcome the congregation to Mass, announce and lead the songs during the liturgy.  Cantors should ideally be studying voice privately or have significant choral experience.

Instrumentalists
Instrumentalists enhance liturgy by helping to “lead and sustain the singing of the assembly…,add varied and colorful dimensions to the song, especially with the addition of harmonization” (Sing to the Lord)  and provide instrumental meditations. Instrumentalists should be comfortable reading music, transposing (if necessary), and playing independently in front of a congregation.

Voices of Light Choir
The Voices of Light Choir sings at the 10:30am Mass every Sunday from October to May. Rehearsals are on Thursday evenings (6:00-8:00pm) in the chapel. The choir sings a range of repertoire and members are encouraged to practice independently if needed. Practice cd’s are available upon request.
