It is not surprising that Pope Benedict XVI who plays the piano and has a preference for the music of Bach and Mozart, should have requested that excellence of music in services should be one of the special aims of the worship in our churches.
We have always been proud that our St Michael's Catholic Church Choir is one of the very few choirs left in the Cape area that tries to provide the finest in the rich heritage of Catholic church music.
Under the baton of our choirmaster and organist Dr. Barry Smith, the choir has a large repertoire of motets and mass settings and is proud of all its members. The choir invites those interested in joining to contact our choirmaster after 9am mass on Sunday.
As the psalmist wrote - 'Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises to our King, sing praises. For God is the King of all the earth: sing to him a psalm of praise.' New International Version, Psalm 47 vs 6 & 7.
