Music at St. Michael seeks to promote musical excellence in service to the Lord through the talents of its choirs, cantors, instrumentalists, and organists. Each of our choirs is named for a patron saint whose intercession is sought to guide us in our ministry. Our concert series draws music from the treasury of great Church literature to illuminate themes central to our Catholic faith. Above all, Music at St. Michael is a ministry that welcomes those who wish to share their musical gifts with the parish and community. We invite you to explore our website to discover more about our people, our history, and our fine music programs.

Give voice to your faith while serving the greater parish community by becoming a member of one of our outstanding adult or children’s choirs.
Organs
St. Michael the Archangel Parish is blessed to have three excellent organs to enhance the celebration of the liturgy. Each has its own unique character worthy of the title “the King of Instruments.”
Concerts
The music of the Church ignites the spirit and stirs the soul. Our “Concerts on the Casavant” series and Sacred Music Series offer many opportunities for greater spiritual reflection in the contemplative setting of our beautiful churches.
Music for Weddings and Funerals
In celebration and sorrow, the music of the Church speaks to the sacramental nature of life’s milestones. Let us help you find a voice fitting to each occasion.
“When man comes into contact with God, mere speech is not enough.”
“The importance of music in biblical religion is shown very simply by the fact that the verb ‘to sing’ (with related words such as ‘song’ and so forth) is one of the most commonly used words in the Bible. It occurs 309 times in the Old Testament and thirty-six in the New. When man comes into contact with God, mere speech is not enough.”
— Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, The Spirit of the Liturgy, 2000
