GREGORIAN SCHOLA HONORS

The Gregorian Schola is a special ensemble of eighty members of the general Chorus. Comprised of only Juniors and Seniors, the Schola is appointed based on vocal ability by the Director. Sophomores appointed 

as officers of the 2nd year Chorus students are also invited to membership in the Schola. 

The Schola specializes in traditional Gregorian Chant and Sacred Choral Music. 

The Gregorian Schola, an academic credit-bearing ensemble, maintains the rank of  honors in the academic program at Saint Anthony's with the resulting average being factored into the GPA.

The group has provided music for Christmas, Easter and Pentecost masses on National Catholic Cable Networks as well as concerts at Saint Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City, Saint Agnes Cathedral in Rockville Centre and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and local service academies such as West Point and Kings Point.  They have also sung the National Anthem at both Mets and Jets games! Each year, the chancel choir leads the sacred rituals of Holy Week and the Paschal Triduum.

They have also traveled as far east as the twin forks of Long Island to perform traditional Latin High Masses. The Schola has recorded seven CDs each featuring unique music to be used throughout the Liturgical year. Proceeds from CD sales go to supporting the European Tours. CDs are on sale at each of the concerts during the year.
