CHOIR CORNER
Welcome to the St Sylvester Adult “Virtual Choir” project Round 3 – The Word is in Your Heart
The Members of the Adult Choir/Music Ministry are proud to present their third musical gift to the people of St. Sylvester Parish. We have spent our Covid-19 isolation continuing to make music in the form of “virtual” recordings. Under the direction and guidance of Therese and Clark Blanton, Music Ministry members recorded their own choral parts and submitted them to be mixed together to create this beautiful piece titled The Word is in Your Heart. Please click here to open a video presentation.
This is our Thanksgiving musical gift to the St. Sylvester community. We hope that you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed preparing it for you. You may also want to check out our previous efforts – The Cross of Jesus and Precious Lord which are below.
We are pleased to announce that Adult Choir will be returning in person to the 11:00 mass beginning with the First Sunday of Advent-November 28. If you are interested in participating in the Music Ministry at St. Sylvester, feel free to get in touch with Therese and Clark Blanton. Their contact information is below.

The Adult Choir is open to all teens and young adults (high school and college age) and adults who enjoy all styles of music. The repertoire of music for this group calls for soprano, alto, tenor, and bass voicing for rich harmony. We are always welcoming of new members, especially altos and men for balance.
