Katherine Hill,
Director of Music
David Smith,
Organist
Our traditional liturgical music combines the mysterious, ancient beauty of Gregorian Chant
with the resplendent choral harmonies of later centuries.
Our organist Fr David Smith provides voluntaries before and following Mass most weeks
(except during Lent).
