Adult Choir Interested persons may serve as a choir member, a cantor, or an Instrumentalist. Music Ministers rehearse at a two-hour rehearsal during the week. For singers, proper vocal production, breathing techniques, vowel formation, diction, and part singing are all addressed while preparing to prayerfully support the musical prayer at all parish liturgies. Instrumentalists are instructed to be a part of an ensemble that supports the singing of the assembly & music ministers at the Masses. On the weekend, the musicians arrive to warm up & rehearse before the scheduled Mass at which they serve.
