Sacred Music Workshop in Winnipeg, Aug. 25-27


Plan to join the weekend workshop on sacred music, to be held August 25-27 at St. Anthony of Padua Parish, located at 250 Burrin Avenue, in Winnipeg, Manitoba.

The workshop is targeted for beginners who wish to learn the fundamentals of Gregorian Chant, fostering a deeper appreciation of sacred music and equipping attendees with tools and knowledge to bring beautiful music to use at their parishes.

A Parish Book of Chant book will be provided for each registrant, as well as all needed materials for the workshop and lunch on Saturday, all for the very reasonable cost of CA$75.

The workshop will be led by Catherine Helferty.
