PROPOSED CHOIR ROOM
2,200 SF

Choir rehearsal area
  • Piano & ensemble practice area
  • Stepped risers for choir rehearsal
  • Direct connection to Sanctuary
Music director office
Work room

Providing a new choir room for our three choirs, cantors, and musicians will allow them rehearsal space during the week, a quiet practice place on Saturday evening, and an area where they can prepare and rehearse for Mass on Sunday mornings.

​Instruments and sheet music will be securely stored in this room, which will also have ample workspace for arranging the complex binders our instrumentalists and singers use. Its proximity to the church’s choir space will facilitate movement before and after liturgies.

Situating a new office for our music and liturgy ministry next to the rehearsal space will free up much-needed office space in the reception corridor, where five staff members currently occupy two small offices.
