The Auckland Latin Mass Chaplaincy Choir gathered a group of talented musicians (both men and women) from the chaplaincy to bring greater glory to God with our voices. As a Catholic choir for the Traditional Latin Mass, the focus of the choir is primarily on the singing of Gregorian chants during the Sacred Liturgy.
On top of Gregorian Chant, the choir also has an extensive Sacred Music Program with a large repertoire. The repertoire carries on the traditions of sacred polyphonies from Renaissance Catholic composers such as William Byrd, Palestrina and Victoria to more modern composers such as Rev. Carlos Rossini (USA) , Delfino Thermignon (Italy) and Ronan Rielly (Australia) during the Holy Mass.
Being in a church choir is both a privilege and a calling from the almighty God. If you are interested in joining the chaplaincy choir please email us.
If you would like the choir to sing in your upcoming wedding (Traditional Roman Rite only) or would like to have the choir sing at a funeral (Traditional Roman Rite only). Please email us at choir@fssp.nz
* Subject to choir availability.
The choir also heavily involved in numerous outreach projects with the New Zealand Sacred Music Association to increase awareness of the Sacred Music Traditions of the Catholic Church throughout New Zealand.
May our voices be united with the choir of angels in heaven and all the saints, give glory to God who reigneth forever and ever.
