Greetings and welcome to the homepage and blog of the Schola cantorum of the Palm Beaches. The group brings together dedicated singers from Southeast Florida who want to explore the beauty and spirituality of Gregorian and vernacular chant. The group is not affiliated with an individual parish but rather seeks to serve the entire region.
The schola consists of men's and women's ensembles that occasionally come together to sing in alternatim. Future plans will have the groups combining to sing polyphony as well. This page will have rehearsal schedules and appearances but also news about other scholas, workshops, and the growing movement of reintroducing chant and traditional church music into the modern Catholic Church.
Please stop by from time to time and see what we are doing and saying. All views are welcome here but civility and Christian charity are the rule here.
Pax vobiscum
Michael O'Connor

Congratulations to the Schola Cantorum of the Palm Beaches from the St. Augustine Schola Cantorae!
Our nascent website is www.cantorae.com.
We're changing church music in Florida - one chant at a time.
It was a real pleasure to meet, eat and sing you at Colloquium last week. I've just added your blog to the roll.
