The St. Sebastian Adult Choir has Three Primary Responsibilities.
- The first is to support and enhance the song of the congregation. Regular rehearsal allows the choir to bring a polished, enthusiastic knowledge of the music to the assembly.
- The second is to assist the assembly while learning new music, speeding up the process and helping the congregation feel comfortable and supported during the learning process.
- The third is the enhancement of the song of the assembly by adding harmonization and descants that enrich the melody line sung by the rest of the congregation.
