"The musical tradition of the universal Church is a treasure of inestimable value...
the main reason for this pre-eminence is that, as sacred song united to the words,
it forms a necessary or integral part of the solemn liturgy." -- Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy

Whether through the singing of the people, the singing of the Cathedral Choirs, or the playing of the Cathedral organs, the Cathedral music program brings the Church's rich tradition of Sacred Music to each Cathedral Liturgy, allowing all to experience God through the beauty of music.

      Please take a moment to see our upcoming events and to browse our available information.

The Cathedral Choir

The Cathedral Choir is the mainstay of the Cathedral Music Program.
The Cathedral Choir sings from September through the Solemnity of the Body and Blood of Christ
during the 11:00 AM Sunday Mass and for Holy Days. The Cathedral Choir seeks to present the finest works of the Church's rich heritage of sacred music, singing works spanning the centuries, from chant to sacred compositions of the 21st Century.
Participation in the Cathedral Choir is open to singers of high school age and older.
Previous music experience is encouraged. For more information and to register, please click here.

The Diocesan Youth Choir
The Diocesan Youth Choir was established in 2014, and is comprised of youth from parishes throughout the Diocese. Throughout the season, the Diocesan Youth Choir sings for liturgies and special occasions, many of which are presided over by Bishop Thomas A. Daly.

List of liturgies includes:
Thanksgiving Day Mass, Christmas Eve Mass, the Lourdes Novena for Healing,
Holy Thursday Mass, and First Communion/Confirmation Mass.

Participation is open to children in grades 3-8. For more information or to register, please click here.

The Cathedral Concert Series is a presentation of the Cathedral music program. This series features concerts and recitals by the Cathedral Choir, Diocesan Youth Choir, Cathedral Organists, and visiting musicians. Upcoming concerts and recitals are listed below.

After 102 years of service, the W. W. Kimball gallery organ located in the choir loft is no longer functional.  The piecemeal repairs are never-ending, costly, and do nothing to permantly fix the problems.  The only remaining functional instrument is the one loacted in the west transept.  A professional evaluation of the Cathedral Organ was conducted in 2014 and can be veiwed here.  In the months ahead, parish leadership will be discussing long term strategies to replace the gallery organ with a new instrument which will last for the next 100 years.
