The Choir of the Carmelite Priory sings a wide range of repertoire, though our focus is undeniably Renaissance polyphony. You can browse our current and previous music lists below.
In addition to the music listed, the Sunday Mass normally includes sung Plainchant propers, Credo III, and the Pater noster. Mass concludes with the seasonal Marian Antiphon. Mass movements are indicated in (parentheses); the Sanctus and Agnus Dei are most often sung to Plainchant, with longer Agnus Dei settings being sung during Communion.
