Traditional Latin Choir

St. Anthony’s Traditional Latin Choir sings for the Sunday 1:00 pm High Mass, Holy Days of Obligation and many feast days throughout the year.  We have many choir members and 3 different choirs who all sing for the Traditional Latin Mass.  The children’s choir sings with the advanced choir on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of the month.  On the 2nd and 4th Sundays, the men’s schola joins the advanced choir to harmonize 4 part hymns and some polyphony.  All choir members learn Gregorian chant which include various Mass settings of the Kyrie, Gloria, Sanctus, Agnus Dei and the Credo, as well as ancient hymns.  The older girls and men’s schola chant the Mass propers for each Mass.  While Latin hymns are required during Mass, we also sing classic English hymns for the processional and recessional.  The congregation is encouraged to join in singing the Mass parts and English hymns.
