Music at Sacred Heart offers opportunities for singers and instrumentalists, both children and adults who are experienced musicians and those who are eager learners.  All are welcomed to join in providing the music of our Catholic faith – an integral part of our prayers and a lasting expression of our faith.
 
For detailed information, contact Suzanne Wolonick (organist and Director of Music) at suzanne.wolonick@sacredheartpinehurst.org – or Roger Castanien (Director of Choirs) at roger.castanien@sacredheartpinehurst.org

CHANCEL CHOIR

The Chancel (adult) Choir sings from September through June during the Sunday 10:45 am Mass, as well as monthly during the other weekend masses.  Rehearsals are on Wednesday evening from 6:30 until 8:00 pm and prior to mass according to our participation schedule.
No audition is required to participate. 
 

TEEN CHORUS

Students from grade 6 through high school comprise our Teen Chorus.  They rehearse on Sunday mornings between masses, from 9:15 until 10 am.  These singers explore a variety of musical styles, from chant to canons to traditional choral music.  They also study our liturgical music and the process of cantoring.  The Teens sing at selected masses by themselves and occasionally join the Chancel Choir for special observances.
 

CHILDREN’S CHOIR

The Children’s Choir (grades 2 through 5) rehearses on Mondays, from 4:30 until 5:15 pm.  These eager singers learn basic singing techniques and an introduction to reading music.  They sing at selected family masses and during holidays and special occasions with the other choirs.  All children who would like to sing are welcome.
 
For additional details regarding our Choral Music Program, please contact Roger Castanien.
 

INSTRUMENTALISTS

We welcome those who are interested in lending their instrumental talents to our music.  If you have a talent and play (strings, winds, keyboard, or percussion) and are interested in adding your instrumental skills to our parish music, contact Suzanne Wolonick for further information.
 

CANTORS

Cantors lead congregational singing at weekend masses and holy days.  Cantors need to be experienced singers.  Audition with the director of music required.  Basic music reading skills are important – training offered.  Membership in our choirs is expected.
