Our Holy Redeemer Roman Catholic Church

37 South Ocean Ave., Freeport, New York

12:00 p.m. Sacred Music Workshop (bring your own lunch)

5:00 p.m. Sung Mass (Novus Ordo)

Join Dr. Jennifer Donelson (Director of Sacred Music at St. Joseph’s Seminary, Dunwoodie) for an afternoon learning the chants for the Solemnity of Christ the King. We’ll cover reading Gregorian chant notation, an overview of chant rhythm, and the basics of how to direct and sing a beautifully shaped musical line. Practical sessions in singing will be supplemented by short talks on how we can see the mercy of God at work in the sacred music of the Church.

The afternoon will culminate in a sung Mass (novus ordo) for the Solemnity of Christ the King.

All are welcome, including beginners.

There is no charge for the workshop, but those who wish to attend are asked to RSVP to Fr. Alessandro da Luz by calling (516) 378-0665, or emailing him at adaluz@drvc.org.
