music

At the 10 weekend masses held at St. Mary’s there are four main masses which have music. The musical environment at St Mary’s is unique in that each Mass time offers a completely different congregational environment.

The 9.00am Family Mass brings together children of all ages with their families.
Actions in the hymns, a children’s choir, and instruments are all part of the musical liturgical environment.

The 10.30am Sunday mass takes us to a more traditional setting with a male quartet and a men’s choir every second Sunday accompanied by the big pipe organ in the choir loft.

The Sunday night carries a Youth mass every month with young singers, uplifting music and an energy only known in the young otherwise the Sunday night is a quieter more reflective mass with beautiful music.

The Saturday vigil is a mix of contemporary and traditional, using both organ and piano with a small choir.

Big events at St. Mary’s such as Easter and Christmas, Celebrations, Spiritual Events bring together the adult choir which numbers about 45.
