Invitation to sing in the SVS Education Day community choir

CRESTWOOD, NY [OCA Communications] — Faithful attending the annual Orthodox Education Day at Saint Vladimir’s Seminary here on Saturday, October 7, are warmly invited to sing with the community choir that will provide the responses at the hierarchal Divine Liturgy.

Experienced singers in all voice parts are invited to join director Mark Bailey in singing psalms and hymns antiphonally with the seminary choir, which will be directed by Deacon Kevin Smith. Engaging in this vibrant and inspiring form of liturgical singing is a hallmark not only of Education day, but of the seminary’s whole liturgical life.

The Divine Liturgy, at which His Beatitude, Metropolitan Herman will preside, will begin at 9:30am. All singers are encouraged to attend rehearsals at the campus on Friday, September 29, from 7:30-9:00 p.m., and on the morning of Education Day at 8:00am. Music for the day will be posted on the seminary web site at www.svots.edu for free download so that singers can prepare in advance.
