MUSIC NOTES – MARCH 2025
You have heard beautiful Latin music at our Masses many times. Even when you don’t know the words, the music washes over you and invites you into the beauty of God’s presence. This Lent we will be singing a couple of the Mass parts in Latin chant: the “Holy Holy Holy” and the “Lamb of God.” Father Paul and our music director John have recorded a video of them singing these parts (with chant notation) to help all of us become familiar with the music we’ll be singing this Lent.

The Adult Choir sings every Sunday (but not the 2nd Sunday of the month) at the 9:00 a.m. Sunday Mass, September through May. The Adult Choir will also sing at the 9:00 a.m. Christmas Mass.
Rehearsals are on Mondays at 7:00 p.m. with a 7:30 p.m. start when there is a Marian Monday presentation. We are structuring the rehearsals such that it will be accessible for those with no prior musical experience while still being challenging for longtime musicians. For all parishioners 18+.
This is a great opportunity for growing in community and glorifying the Lord through music!
Join our St. Joseph Men’s Choir!
This is a lower commitment choir that meets roughly once a month for rehearsals, and sing at 4 Masses throughout the year: the Solemnity of St. Joseph, Palm Sunday, Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary and the Feast of the Holy Family.
This a good fit for those looking to get involved with more time constraints. Rehearsals will be scheduled so that men can also participate in the Adult Choir.
This is a great opportunity for growing in community and glorifying the Lord through music! For men 18+.
The Children’s Choir for 1st through 8th grade boys and girls sings the second Sunday of each month at the 9:00 a.m. Sunday Mass, from October through May. The Children’s Choir also sings at the 4 p.m. Christmas Eve Mass and at the 9 a.m. Easter Mass.
Rehearsals are on Wednesdays at 5:30 – 6:20 p.m. from September through May. Rehearsals will include activities from the Ward method, which helps children develop musically and become well trained in solfège singing.
A great opportunity for children to develop in musical knowledge!
