There are several music groups active at St. Mary's. For more information on any of them, please contact Libby Saxton at the Parish Office.

Children's Choir

Children's choir sings at the 9:30am Mass once a month during the school year. Practices are on Sundays from 12:15pm to 1:30pm. We do provide snacks to tide them over until lunch. All children are welcome (meaning they should be old enough to sing, but not quite teenagers). Check the parish calendar for practices.

Youth Band

Additionally, there has been interest for a youth band. A band to play for prayer services for youth & family events but also to accompany music for a Youth Mass. We are looking for flexible students who are willing to practice once a week - we need singers, guitar players, bass guitar players, drummers, etc. We practice on Wednesday evenings from 4:30pm to 5:30pm in the Youth Room/choir loft. All interested teens and youthful adults are welcome.

Adult Choir

 This group is open to all high-school age teenagers and older. We are of varying ages and musical abilities. As long as you love to sing, you are welcome here. We laugh together, we pray together, and we sing together. The Adult choir sings at the 11:00am  Sunday Mass 3-4 times a month. The last week of the month is usually a week off for the adult choir to relax and attend any Mass they'd like. The Adult Choir practices on Wednesday evening from 7pm-8pm in the music room of the school. Nearing the Christmas and Easter season, rehearsals get a bit longer - for the exact schedule, check the calendar page.

Folk Group

 Teresa Maloney-Smith has been volunteering her time, as well as leadership and musical talent for many years as the coordinator of the first folk group at St. Mary's. The folk group consists of guitars, and other simple instruments (flute, violin) as well as many singers. They are always open to new-comers. Teresa's Folk Group practices on Tuesday evenings starting at 7pm and they play for the 9:30am Sunday Mass. Usually they get the 4th Sunday of the month off for rest and relaxation.

St. Mary's Auxilary Folk Group

 Frank and Joan Taylor and Phil Palmer have been offering their musical talents to St. Mary's since 2003.  This group, along with flutist Andrea Carroll, usually accompany the 9:30 AM Mass on the fourth Sunday of the month, giving the regular folk group a week off.  Their repertoire ranges from folk-style hymns to classic hymns to accapella harmonies.  They practice the week prior to the fourth Sunday of the month and are currently seeking a soprano.
