The better the voice is, the meeter it is to honour and serve God therewith:
and the voice of man is chiefly to be employed to that end. – William Byrd

Auckland Latin Mass Chaplaincy Choir
Auckland Latin Mass Chaplaincy
The Auckland Latin Mass Chaplaincy Choir gathered a group of talented musicians (both men and women) from the chaplaincy to bring greater glory to God with our voices. As a Catholic choir for the Traditional Latin Mass, the focus of the choir is primarily on the singing of Gregorian chants during the Sacred Liturgy. On top of Gregorian Chant, our Sacred Music Program carries on the sacred liturgical traditions of polyphony from the great Renaissance composers such as William Byrd, Giovanni Palestrina and Tomas Victoria to more modern composers such as Rev. Carlos Rossini (USA) , Kevin Allen (USA), Philip Stafford (UK), and Ronan Rielly (Australia) during the Holy Mass.
