The St. Louis Choir is Recruiting! - A Few Good Men (and Women!) Needed
The St. Louis Choir seeks enthusiastic, spirit-filled singers to enhance our ranks at masses on Sundays at 11:15am.
Candidates should have the ability to carry a tune, in a bucket or otherwise. The ability to read music is admirable but not required. This part-time position runs September through June, with an option of unlimited renewal. Rehearsals are held on Thursdays from 7:30-9:00pm.
Founded in 1976, the Saint Louis Choir sings a wide range of material spanning 2,000 years of sacred music, including Gregorian chant, Renaissance polyphony, American Spirituals and more. Our sprawling headquarters is surrounded by walking trails, ample parking, and dozens of varieties of flowering perennials.
Choir members qualify for multiple benefits, including cushioned seating and invitations to choir picnics. Applicants may also inquire about the Eternal Heavenly Reward.
If you wish to join the St. Louis Choir, please contact Music Director Heather Adelsberger: hadelsberger@stlouisparish.org or visit us behind the organ console after any 11:15am mass. The St. Louis Choir is an equal-opportunity enterprise.
Changing up settings of the Ordinaries of the Mass from time to time heightens our awareness of texts we sing each week.The Music Ministry will introduce a simple setting of the Gloria during Ordinary Time. The music can be found in the red Worship hymnal at #324. Please sing along!Check out this preview with Heather Adelsberger, Director of Music:
