Sacred Music Program

The Cathedral English Choir sings for the 9AM Mass on Sundays. This is our principal choral ensemble, singing additionally for Bishop’s Masses, Vespers, Easter Triduum, Christmas, Diocesan Liturgies, and other special Liturgies and events. Knowing how to read music is preferred but not required. Repertoire is mainly traditional hymnody, sacred polyphony, and other choral works. 

The 9AM Mass is a televised Mass and thus viewed by many throughout our Diocese and beyond, thus the highest levels of commitment, self-discipline, and desire are required. Rehearsals take place on Wednesdays at 6:45PM

The Cathedral 11AM choir is an all-volunteer choir for those wanting to learn and participate in more traditional music of The Church including singing antiphons, chants, & hymnody. Rehearsal time is TBD.
