Below are some opportunities for parishioners of St. Peter Claver Parish to lend their voices and musical talents in the celebration of Liturgy. Music Ministers give of their time and talent to enrich and enlighten our Liturgies. We use our voices and instruments to offer our praises to God and encourage the Assembly to participate to its fullest. View online cantor/choir and liturgical ministers schedule.

New Life Choir (Funeral Choir) A devoted group of adults who are called to sing for all Funeral Liturgies. Mostly unison singing, this choir rehearses before the funeral and occasionally will sing at a weekend Mass. No weekly rehearsals are held for this choir. Handbell Choir The handbell choir is comprised of a group of individuals of varying ages who have both years of experience and those who are just beginning to ring. The handbell choir rings and rehearses at least once a month and is open to anyone who is able to read music notation. Cantors Cantors are leaders of congregational singing and must possess the skills necessary for leading song, singing alone well and teaching new music to the congregation. Cantors need to be able to make people feel welcome to sing. Cantors normally sing about once a month and rehearse with the director of music a half an hour before Mass. Instrumentalists Musicians accompany and/or play solos and add to the Celebration of the Liturgy. All ages are invited to share their talents. Instrumentalists need to be confident in their playing and be able to maintain poise in front of a large group.
