Summary
I am applying for the part time position of music coordinator. I have been involved with sacred music most of my adult life have sung in choirs since 1969. I have cantered for at least 5 Catholic Churches. My job at St Ambrose required me to develop the weekly music for the normal weekend service, Holy days and holy seasons such as advent and lent. I have been called upon to sing the Exultate many times.
I look forward to discussing this in greater detail when the time is good for you.
Thank you
