I’m a member of my parish choir and we have a great repetoire of music. This weekend we are singing the Missa Brevis Joannis de Deo of Haydn with string trio as well as the Franck Panis Angelicus and the (oversung) Mozart Ave Verum. Last week we sang music of William Mathias. In our season we sing everything from Chant Communio for the Sunday to Palestrina to Bruckner. We also have had a composer in residence and routinely perform premiers by guests and by choir members. I already can’t wait until next year.
The more parishes tap into the amazing treasury of beautiful Catholic music, the sooner we'll lose the OCP rep.
