The goal of the schola is to glorify God through the preservation of the official music of the Catholic Church, Gregorian chant. The schola works specifically on singing the Propers of the Mass, the Introit, Gradual, Alleluia, Offertory, and Communio chants. The texts of all of these chants are Biblical, often from the Book of Psalms. The musical settings are, for the most part, quite ancient, often dating to the first millenium. No prior experience with note reading or Latin pronunciation is required for those interested in joining.
