The St. Mary’s Children’s Schola and the Anchor Academy Schola Cantorum combine to sing for the 9:30 Extraordinary Form Solemn High Mass this Sunday. These young choristers have been rehearsing for several months, learning the basics of singing and reading Gregorian chant, the foundation of all sacred music. The scholae will next sing for Mass on April 5th, Palm Sunday. For more information about the program of children’s musical formation at St. Mary’s, please contact David Hughes.
